Week 13 (Only 6 weeks to go! Are you prepared for the EOCT?)
Hello All!
The Giant Research Papers should be graded and handed back by next Monday.
Today IS the last day I'm accepting late work. Get it in the first time! (Unless you have an errand pass or tickets--see the Syllabus.)
9th Grade Lit: We are continuing Romeo and Juliet this week. We are continuing our graphic organizer from page 801 in the text book, and preparing for a comparison activity.
American Lit: Presentations start TODAY. I'm shocked and amazed that some people still don't have their presentations done. Late work is not accepted. I need to have those presentations today. If you don't have it in class, I need it sent to me in an email (take a picture of your poster if you have to). It is due TODAY.

12 Week Progress Report
The next official Progress Report will be sent home next Wednesday. As of today, I have finished grading all of the work that will appear on the Progress Report, including all makeup work turned in to me by October 31st.

This unofficial progress report will list all of the assignments thus far, except for today's test (American Lit) and the Giant Research Paper.
As previously stated, the final day to turn in any makeup work is Monday, November 7th.

Week 12
Monday: Research Papers Due today!!! Remember, it's one letter grade off for each day that it is late, so the 10 of you in 1st Block, the 10 of you in 2nd Block, and the 13 of you in 4th Block who did not turn in their Giant Research Paper today MUST turn in your paper by Tuesday if you want to get a good grade in this class. This is a MAJOR assignment (hey, isn't there something in the syllabus about using errand passes or tickets to turn in major assignments late?), and if you don't turn it in at all, or turn it in too late, you will probably fail the class.
9th Grade had a Make Up Work Day. Students who had no make up work were rewarded appropriately.
American Lit reviewed for the EOCT by going through the major characteristics of the various periods we've covered, and created a graphic organizer for our notes. You can find the template here. So far we've covered Native American, Early Explorers, Puritan, Age of Reason, Romantic, Gothic, and Transcendentalism.
Tuesday: American Lit will have a test on Transcendentalism. 9th Grade will begin their drama unit. Click here for a copy of the Romeo and Juliet Notes Handout, if you need to print another one.
Wednesday: American Lit will have a Make Up Work Day. Students who have no make up work will be rewarded appropriately.
Thursday: 3 Units of Vocabulary will be checked. Unit 9, 10, and 11.
Friday: Unit 11 Vocabulary Test. Activators and Grammar Bites 50-59 due.
Monday: Reading Logs due.
American Lit will begin their Presentations.

Change in Plans
Due to events beyond all of our control, we're going to revise our gameplan.
Thursday: Still meet in the Writing Lab, however, we will be taking the Benchmark before we can begin typing. Because of this, the due date for your Research Papers will be pushed back to Friday, October 28th at the end of class.
Friday: Still meet in the Writing Lab, this will be a day to work on your Research Papers, however you need to finish before the end of the day. You should have time to start on your projects, so if you are doing something physical (ie: not on the computer), you need to bring your materials so you can work on this in class.
American Lit, your Transcendentalism Test (with a splash of the Romantic) will be moved back to Monday, October 31st.
9th Lit, we'll be starting Romeo and Juliet on Monday. Casting set on Monday, if you don't have a part, you are the chorus.
Thank you all for your patience and flexibility. I really hope none of you caught the bug I have. If any one wishes to donate more hand sanitizer to the classroom, it would be greatly appreciated (with tickets).

Activator and Grammar Bite 48
Today we are in the library to learn about MLA style and start typing up our drafts of our reaseach paper. Why is it important to say where you got the information you got for your research paper? Why do you think you need to copy down more than just the title of the book or a web address? (Hint: perhaps something to do with the validity of the source?)
GB48: Copy the sentences and underline the adverbs.
Remember, your papers are due at the beginning of class on Friday, October 28th, NEXT FRIDAY!!!
GB48: Copy the sentences and underline the adverbs.
- After 1st Block, you should go directly to the auditorium. (This is a false statement.)
- You need to have your research papers finished so work quickly, quietly, and diligently. (This is a true statement.)
- All of your makeup work is due on October 31st if you want it to appear on the progress report, so make sure your work is completely done by then.

Giant Research Paper Progress American Lit
To clarify what is due when on your Research Project, here are some deadlines.
By today (your rubric said Tuesday, so you have until today), you have to have 5 (or more) sources, copy the citation information (either copy the MLA style, or copy down the 5/6 things that you need to cite that source).
By today, you have to "share" your Google Doc of those sources with me at Mrs.Bundschu at gmail dot com. (Written like this because I don't want spam.)
On the same document, you will write, under each source 1-4. In this document, you will write your notes for each of the sources, for each of the sections of your paper.
Your final notes, (i.e.: 5 sources and notes 1-4, with all of the information you need for your checklist for your paper) are due in class, printed or saved on your laptop, in class on Friday, October 17th.
Here is an example of what is due today, and next week. The first page is the minimum of what needs to be in my inbox by today. The second page is a example of a work in progress towards next week, as well as how NOT to write your notes. The third page is a perfect example of ONE source for what you need to bring in to class on Friday, October 17th.

2. Your Study Groups
Click here to find a list of all of the Research Groups, and who everyone is researching. Scroll down to reach your class.

On Friday, you must turn in 20 unique, original sentences, each using one of the Unit 7 vocaublary words (underline it!), in order. These must be your own sentences (not from the book, or the internet, or your friend), and they must correctly use the vocabulary word. You may use more than one word in one sentence, but I'll only be grading the word that matches the number.
