We went into the library, where Ms. Harger presented an introduction to the specialized reference materials. Students were required to come up with two new sources (and source cards) and one or two cards of notes by the end of the period.

Monday, March 17
Students took a quiz over the vocabulary words from "The Yellow Wallpaper" and we graded it. Then students completed a punctuation exercise requiring students to punctuate the same "Dear John" letter two different ways to produce two very different meanings. We talked briefly about how punctuation can determine meaning, and about some of the ways that written language differs from spoken language.

Mr. Potratz was absent. Students studied for the vocabulary test on Monday.
