Can you believe that we have TWO more storms in the ocean? Ike and Josephine. And we're only up to the letter J. Shades of 2004. . .let's hope these storms stay out at sea.

Sophys: Author of the Day is Angela Shelf Madearis; examples from literary vocabulary #3; finish "Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry.

APees: Madame Bovary test. If you didn't check out a literary anthology from the Media Center last week, you need to go before or after school by FRIDAY to get yours. We will be using the anthology in class for Oedipus Rex, our next text. Word of the Day is "prosaic" which is an adjective meaning mundane, ordinary, or normal.

Early Day!!! Thank goodness we kept that with the new schedule. Happy day, everyone!
