Hello again,
As this trimester draws to a close, students are creating monologues based on a food from a "celebration feast". They started brainstorming about a food today and will be working on it in class. Please help guide them by reminding them of your family's traditions at this time of year regarding food. The monologues will be performed in class on Thursday, and they are welcome to use a prop or costume piece to make it more fun.
Students also received a permission slip to see the film version of The Outsiders, which we are viewing to compare to the novel. Please sign and return it to me ASAP. If you need another copy, you may print the one from my blog under "handouts".
If you are in the mood for an energetic show full of singing and dancing for the whole family, please see the Young Americans. They are performing at 3 and 7:3o PM in our auditorium on Saturday. Students from throughout the district will be taking classes and sharing their enthusiasm.
If your student did not successfully email their Character Advice poem, please ensure that they bring it in on a flash drive. Sometimes technology is not as easy as it seems. I sent an email with the names of students from whom I have not received their emailed poem.
