Period 1--ELA B 30
We continued in Act I of Hamlet and discussed Polonius's advice to Laertes and Ophelia. We were just at the part when Hamlet meets up with his father's ghost when the bell rang, so we should finish Act I tomorrow.
Period 2--ELA B 30/AP 30
We spent quite a bit of time exploring Hamlet's first soliloquy in detail. It is always surprising how much Shakespeare packs into each speech. We finished the rest of scene ii and summarized it. We'll continue reading tomorrow.
Grade 12s in ELA B 30 are reminded to have their persuasive essays to me for Friday.
AP 30 students are reminded to continue to work on their book annotations. I'd like those in before Christmas holidays.
Period 3--Pre-AP 10
This is the penultimate class the students have to work on this comparison/critique assignment. It is due December 19th and tomorrow is their last work period on it. I concede it is difficult, but have shown them a sample, so hopefully it helps! If they choose to do a Macbeth re-write of their formal essay, that is also due December 19th.
Period 4--History 10
The kids wrote their French Revolution exam today. Tomorrow Mrs. Adelman will be in for me, and the kids will do some current events worksheets.
Period 5--History 30
Miss Lee had the students finish off their jigsaw from yesterday and they had some discussions about their information. She then had a power point with information about British Columbia joining confederation; the students had handouts with blanks to fill in and we continued to discuss. Tomorrow's class should see some Riel Rebellion information for the students.
