Day 26 – Eng. 10
All September Monthly Papers must be turned in prior to the start of your class period today.
“Late Assignments: Your responsibilities in this class include keeping your own up-to-date assignment notebook, maintaining pace with the reading, and turning all assignments in on time.
If you do not understand an assignment, ask for help far enough in advance to have time to finish the assignment. If you are having personal difficulties apart from class, talk to me before an assigned due date so that we can make other arrangements. Otherwise, each day an assignment is late, I will subtract 10% from the grade. Once I have graded and returned an assignment, you cannot turn that assignment in for credit.
You will be given at least a week’s lead-time for out-of-class papers and other major assignments, so plan accordingly: if you spend most weeknights working on daily homework for other classes, you will probably need to block out a significant amount of time on the weekend for prewriting, writing, and revising your work.
If you are missing class do to a known fieldtrip you must make arrangement to do any of the assignments or tests due that day, prior to leaving on the fieldtrip.”

Your Eng. 10 iBook textbook is valuable in all kinds of ways. For those of you reading To Kill a Mockingbird the introductory video on page 160 might be very helpful.
Today we get back to our Literary Circle novels. As a whole, most of you did very well on the first vocabulary / literary skills tests. Remember that you must study the vocabulary list and our daily review of our reading. Here are the updated vocabulary lists for each novel group.

We will be doing in-class reading and literary circle discussions today, tomorrow, and on Friday this week.
Remember that we are using Google Forms for your role sheets. Take your notes in another program and post them to the Google Form when you are ready to submit the form. Forms must be submitted prior to the start of the class on the day after you have been assigned a role. Here are the links again to make it easy for you.
Great, lets get started reading!
