October 10, 2019 -- YAY! It's A 4-Day Weekend!

ENG I
I hope everyone enjoys this upcoming 4-day weekend!  This is the perfect weekend to get the Outside Reading book, Revolver, read.  I spoke to your sons this week about taking brief notes after each chapter.

The Test for this will most likely be October 29th.  There is still plenty of time to read this book...just try to make sure that your son does not save it until the last minute.  The end of the marking period can sometimes be a bit hectic at CBA, so having Outside Reading finished or almost finished by then will be incredibly helpful.

I am very excited that I think we are finally going to have some Fall weather this week!


ENG II
We have started reading The Great Gatsby this week.  Well, half of them are reading.  I gave your sons a pop quiz on their reading of Chapter 2 on Thursday and more than half of them could not answer ANY of the questions.  I may have taught some of your sons a little lesson today.  They simply did not do their homework, and I am not interested in telling them about an amazing book that they are not willing to read.  The good news is, I think many of them got the message and I think they will be reading so they do not get a 0/15 on a future quiz.
