Thursday, May 13

Students were reminded that anyone needing to finish the Junior Writing Assessment can come in after school either today, Monday, or Tuesday, or can talk with the teacher individually outside of class and negotiate a different time.

We began by reviewing the part of Chapter 2 in Gatsby which we listened to yesterday, including the appearance of important images of Dust and Ashes (The Valley of Ashes), Ghosts, Phantoms, and Death (George Wilson), and both Eyes and Seeing and Disembodiment (the etes of T.J. Eckleburg).

Then we listened to the end of Chapter 2 and the beginning of Chapter 3.

HW:
Due Monday -- Read at least through Chapter 5 in Gatsby. Quiz over the first five chapters.
Due Tuesday: Booklets will be stamped again. At least 30 entries needed to qualify for a stamp.
