Period 1--ELA A 30
We began reading an essay about the Canadian personality (if there is such a thing) and argued about it for a bit. We didn't finish the essay, but will do so tomorrow and there will be an assignment that accompanies it.
Period 2--AP 30
The students finished reading the graphic novel of Beowulf if they weren't quite finished. After this, they were given their assignment which is to create a boast using kennings, alliteration, and caesura. I read them samples from previous years to give them an idea. They will have to perform their boasts in front of their peers!
Period 3 & 4--History 10
Mr. Wills introduced their research assignment and we spent the two classes in the computer lab researching their inventor. There are a number of criteria they have to reach throughout their research paper. They will get more time to work on this tomorrow.
Period 5--AP 10
We continued on with Macbeth. Before we did move on, a few were expressing uncertainty about the first few scenes, so we did a quick review of the events of the play so far and summarized them together on the board. We were able to get a bit more reading in, but will be able to move faster tomorrow.
