CONGRATULATIONS TO THE BOONE BRAVES FOR WINNING OUR BARREL BACK FROM EDGEWATER! 21-14, booyah. Very proud of our team and our kids for having insane team spirit. Wish I could have been there to see the revelries, but I was with you via texting--people kept giving me score updates each quarter. Awesome.
Gifted English II: I do wish to speak to you about the three satirical pieces you've read recently, most notably "Top of the Food Chain" by TC Boyle. Also, we need to review the Candide content vocabulary and establish a firm due date for this short novel. I do have a reading day planned, probably Wednesday. Come in ready to go--we have a LOT to do this week, most of which is super-cool.
APeeps: Cultural Connections to Hamlet. You have a focus paper due THURSDAY, but if you submit it earlier so much the better. Today in class, we are going to review key concepts from Act III and watch a key sequence from a film directly related to Hamlet ideologically. You'll laugh, you'll cry. . .
