The rest of the semester...it's drawing to a close. Upcoming Deadlines...



Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving Break! See you on Tuesday 12-2-08!

Papers will be passed back next week - all binders need to be organized. The better organized you are the easier it is to find materials you need to study for your final. Binder checks will occur on 12/5/08 (for a homework grade). Reminder - binder needs to have syllabus as page 1 and sections for vocabulary, grammar and literature. ALL papers are to be kept until Semester 2. Day one of semester 2 we'll have a "recycle day" where we clean our binders of papers I know we will not need for semester 2.

Due Wednesday 12-3 - complete SIA. Worksheet is attached. Discussion guide is on same WS. Prepare for discussion.



Due Thursday 12-4 Vocabulary sentences and illustrations for lessons 11-12. Use all 30 words in sentences (underlined) proving understanding of the word's meaning. Illustrate 5 of the sentences.

Final Exam Study Guide - final exam is Tuesday 12-16-08. Review Worksheet.

Friday 12/5 we'll have a vocabulary quiz (lessons 11 and 12) and Friday 12/12 we'll have a vocabulary test covering lessons 8-14 (no vocab on the final)

The week of 12/8 we'll have a grammar quiz on placement of modifiers (verb phrases continued)

The week of finals I'll post OR for Semester 2...you can get a head start of you wish. Deadlines will be roughly the first week of March and the first week of May. Books will need to be approved by me via email (renemacvay@yahoo.com or rmacvay@sahs.org) in order for the OR to be graded.
