Thanksgiving HW

Over Thanksgiving you will be reading chapters 3-7 in Things Fall Apart and creating dialogue journals for each chapter. Don't leave it to the last minute. I advise you to work on it in 2-3 chunks.

*You will see that I have written FREE RICE on your reading schedule. Free Rice is not a requirement, but a suggestion if you get bored and so stuffed that you think you might benefit from a little vocabulary power workout.
To get credit for the Free Rice Challenge you will need ot donate 10,000 grains of rice. The program will keep track of this for you. Once you reach the total (10,000) you may either come to class and show me (you have to login and create an account so that the program will keep track) or take a picture of your score with your phone.

Remember, students seeking As need at least two Challenge Opportunities per semester. Challenge opportunities don't necessarily guarantee you an A, but clear efforts to go over and beyond into the realm of excellence, depth, and mastery are required. This is one way to show effort.
