Today is National Ask Your Cat a Question Day.  While some of my classes celebrated National Hug Day yesterday in school, I think today's revelries would be better served in the privacy of your own home.  Ask your cat a question!  He or she probably won't answer.

Also--we are going to have a visitor today, a gentleman who wants to become a teacher.  Please be nice.  (I'm really only talking to a handful of you--the handful who probably don't check an assignment blog anyway. . .)

On to today's lessons!!!

Gifted English II:  Julius Caesar Scavenger Hunt!  Bring your copy of the play and I will provide the fun.  And if we finish in time, we can go over the upcoming Julius Caesar Focus Paper assignment.  Oh, yeah.   Good times!!!

AP Literature and Composition:  "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" with the graphic organizer I gave you yesterday; if time, a transition to Classic Rock Day with Iron Maiden's classic interpretation of the poem.  Also--Shelley Focus Paper Assignment.  No rest for the wicked.
