February 26, 2013

Period 1--ELA B 30
This class was spent working on their nomination speeches.  They will have Wednesday to work on them as well!

Period 2--AP 30
We continued our study of Victorian literature with a look at Christina Rossetti and her sonnet "In an Artist's Studio" and then moved onto her brother, Dante Gabriel Rossetti's "The Blessed Damosel."   Tomorrow is a "clean up" day for the kids.  They can be working on:  their assignment to give the women in Browning's poetry a voice, reading Gatsby, or their Romantic poetry essay that is due at the end of the month.

Period 3--AP 10
We finished our power point on Dracula with some interesting discussion.  We finished this shortly before the bell rang so I just had time to introduce the assignment that will accompany this novel.  The students will be doing a "fever chart."  I've provided various topics from which they can choose and then they can start looking for proof.

Period 4--History 10
We finished our handout that reviews concepts from grade 9 Social.  Then, we looked at a supplementary handout on Leonardo daVinci.  We corrected this together and then it was time for DEAR.  The students chose next Tuesday, March 5th as their exam date.
