Hello Multicultural Lit Students and Parents,
Congratulations on having only 3 weeks left of class!
I've already created all the assignments we have remaining in the class in the gradebook so you know exactly where you stand between now and the end of the semester.
In order to support you, as we've discussed in class, I've extended the deadline for the Thanksgiving Break Grade Recovery Assignments to 12/9 at 11:59pm, however, if you want them to count towards exam exemptions, I need them by 12/2 at 11:59pm so that I can grade them by the 12/7 cut off.
While we're reading American Born Chinese, make sure you're completing your daily journal entry and keeping up with the Study Guide Questions, as well as being prepared to present your assigned question to the class.
If you'd like to preview the final presentation assignment, I've already linked it to the Resources Page on the blog. You'll get a printout copy next week.
Have a great Thursday!

Thanksgiving Break Optional Assignments
Hello All,
Several students have asked what they can do to bring up their grade. The following is a completely optional assignment that, if you follow all directions and turn in a product that shows that you have mastery of the Standards, add up to 60 points if you didn't turn in the original assignment, or up to 20 points if you did turn in the original assignment (maximum grade of 100). You may do 1, 2, 3, or none of the assignments.
Optional Thanksgiving Break Grade Recovery Assignment
We're also having our 2nd Socratic Seminar tomorrow. Students were given the questions today, but you can also find them here. Make sure you are prepared by completely answering the questions on a separate sheet of paper. I'll also be collecting both Archetype Graphic Organizers and the Feminist Graphic Organizer. Copies of those are on the Resources Page of the blog.
Have a great Wednesday.

Time is getting closer
Hello All,
As we enter the last 6 weeks of school, we're getting really close to grades being finalized.
As announced in class last week, all makeup work for summative grades is due on turnitin.com by November 9th.
The next large assignment will be next week, and the notes about Literary Criticisms are on the Resources Page of my blog. Students will need to know those criticisms well in order to complete the next assignment.
