Friday, February 17th


Of course, none of our students feel this way. :)

Happy Friday!
Pre-AP
Students took the third test on Homer's The Odyssey today in class.  After finishing this exam, students then peer-edited each others' essays so that they could revise them over the weekend and turn them in on Tuesday, February 21st.


Homework:  Students should finish revising their Voyage of the Dawn Treader essays to turn in on the 21st. On Wednesday, February 22nd, students will be taking the Unit Test for The Odyssey, which will cover all grammar we've done in class since the beginning of our Odyssey study, all literary terms from the "Close-Reading Toolbox" worksheet, all Words of the Day, all action from Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and all action from The Odyssey.


AHSGE Reading Review
In today's class, we analyzed William Sydney Porter's (O. Henry's) short story entitled "Gift of the Magi" and used it to review main ideas, summary, context clues, and predictions.
