Honors English 11 (F and B block)
- Spend time working on your essay! A thoughtful, proofread draft is due on Tuesday.
- Here are a couple more "model" essays you can look at, to get a sense of how writers start this kind of writing, and the voice you might write in. (Both of these review 3 books, while yours is only reviewing 2.) Remember, this essay should be "semi-formal"--give it some personality!
- You also have a DAY 2 quiz on Tuesday, so make sure you're ready for that!
Honors English 12 (G block)
- We're starting to make the push to our final big assignment! You folks did some good thinking about Room, Juno and Frankenstein today, and you've got your final essay assignment in hand. Tonight, make sure you sign up for a Boston Public Library card if you don't already have one. Click here, then look under "How Do I...." on the left.
- Your proposal and your annotated bibliography are due by April 11. You can hand it in earlier if you want! I'll review the formats soon. Start thinking/planning/mapping...
- Make sure you're reading your Book club book. We'll do final book club meetings before vacation.
English 11 (A block)
- Finish reading Chapter 4 of Gatsby.
- Complete a 3-paragraph response for Gatsby, so far. (Paragraph 1--summarize what we've read so far; Paragraph 2--respond to what we've read so far; Paragraph 3--connect what we've read so far to other things...books, movies, personal experience, etc.)
- Study your vocab, too! Quiz is next week.
