This week we had some unusual events that messed with the schedule:
  • NWEA - 1st and 3rd period tested on Monday and Tuesday, and 2nd period tested on Friday and will continue testing on Monday 30 September.
  • CHOICE DAY - Wednesday, 25 September, we had a choice day without regular classes.


The assignments completed this week were:
  • HERO - We watched Hero at 30,000 Feet and talked about it.  There was no written component.
  • PHOTO JOURNAL - The assignment was reviewed and discussed.  It is due Thursday, 3 Oct.
  • 2nd Period Only - We read the first few pages of Looking for Alaska and started Reading Journal #1.  Here is my first reading journal, just in case you need an example.
