Happy spring break!

Debate

No assignment due when we return from spring break!  We will go over the JFK debate and meet in groups to begin preparing for our next group debate.  If you have extra time over the next two weeks, you can begin researching your topic for next time.  These are more normal size debate teams. 🙂

Explorations in British Literature

We went over sections in your British literature notebook today.  We covered all that you had read so far—“The Lady of Shallot”, “School Daze”, Puns (Lewis Carroll), and Victorian novels of the era.  Don’t forget to bring your British literature notebook to class on April 11 so that we can begin with Edward Lear’s limericks.

No-Spin Economics

We did a game review of Crash Course videos #1-#6 and then took the test.  We began going over Chapter 7 in Whatever Happened to Penny Candy? Bring your notes on Chapters 7-9 to class with you next week, and we will continue going over these chapters.

Quick Looks at Great Books

We went over the chapters you read for today and then watched some of the video of the Chapters 1-11.  Be sure to bring your To Kill a Mockingbird study guide and your Literary Terms notebook to our next class in two weeks.
