Homework: September 24

Mrs. Dusseault sent this out in an email today, and I like it so much that I'm sharing it with all of you!

Honors English 11 (C block)

  • Complete your reading and response to "In the Shadow of Wounded Knee." It's a complex text, but none of you have come to work with me after school, so I assume you're handling it. Remember that I posted a link in an earlier blog post to the National Geographic website, where you can find many other resources--audio, photos, video, etc. Use your resources to help you understand!
  • Study your vocab words! You'll have a quiz on Monday.
English 12 (E block)
  • Study your vocabulary--you have a quiz (and class check-in) on Friday.
  • Add to your list of prior knowledge/schema/connections.
  • Look up the essay requirements for any schools/programs you're hoping to apply to.
Readers/Writers Workshop (F block)
  • Work on your narrative. A final draft is due next Wednesday. Use the checklist to monitor your writing progress.
