Over the Weekend

All Students:


  1. Over the weekend read to chapter 13. There will be a test on Monday of chapters 6-12. If you used your time well today, you should be through chapter 8 and have completed dialogue journals for 7 and 8 in the new dialogue journal packet. You may use your dialogue journal and notes on the test.
  2. Please remember to put your name on your dialogue journal packets!!!
  3. Also, remember your responses to quotes should show not just understanding, but analysis. For example, if you explain what a proverb means, you must also discuss how it is important to the book. Why is it used? What does it illustrate? What is Achebe trying to show?
  4. If you have not turned in your "Role of the Writer" essay, please do so ASAP. 
  5. Take some time to look over the semester final project and consider which book you will use for your creative project and artist statement.
  6. With your family, talk over the option to see an author speak, either Michael Chabon at the Schnitzer downtown (free tickets if you have read the book), or Jay Asher, author of 13 Reasons Why who will be speaking at Grant.
Have a beautiful weekend. You are brilliant, funny, and a joy to work with!
