FCAT SCIENCE IS TODAY.

Oh, well. Hopefully it will not affect my reality.

Writing Center open before school, after school, and during both lunch shifts.

AP Literature: Review elements from "Dover Beach" and discuss writing about poetry. I'd like to go over the responses to the fake epic in "Ode to a Drowned Cat," too. If we have time, and we probably will at least in first period, we are going to start the essay portion of Practice Test #2.

Gifted English IV: What we were supposed to do yesterday we will do today. And you will either pay attention and not make incessantly random comments for no reason, or you will leave.

Gifted English II: Author of the Day presentations. 3rd gets to see Desdemona smothered, and then move back into poetry. We need to finish "Mother to Son" by Hughes, and then we are going to transition into "Courage" by Anne Sexton and look at the power of simile. 4th will have more time with poetry.

I have to leave pretty quickly after school. If you are ushering for A Moon for the Misbegotten, please check the notebook and see me at 6 p.m. for call time. I will be grading in the planetarium.
