Beowulf


Hey guys,

I'm sorry I can't be at school on Friday, but I wanted to give you something to help us with our introduction to Beowulf for next week. If you look in the groups drive in the assignments folder, there is a PDF about Anglo Saxon's that I'd like for you to save to your flash drive or your computer and take home to read. On Monday, we'll have an activity that goes along with it, and I want to make sure you're well prepared.

If you're reading this, and a friend of yours may not be, please pass the word along for me.

I'll post the student presenters for November current events, and Tuesday presentations my homepage this weekend. If you have questions, comment here so that I can try to help you. Best wishes on your test!!

~Mrs. Glenn

WordMasters...


Hey guys,


I just wanted to let you know that I'd like you to type your sentences for WordMasters. This will make it easy to send them to my inbox next Wednesday. Don't forget to use complex or compound sentences that provide complex clues. I don't want any simple sentences. If you have questions, post them here. Thanks,


Mrs. Glenn

Last Week of Essays...for a while


Hey guys,


I regret to inform you that this week is our last week of essays that we'll be writing for a while. I have to catch myself up with the grading, and I can't keep assigning you topics, and I'm still not finished grading them. I know you can relate to the time it takes to read one from our lab days, so imagine reading 80 of them. I hope you're not terribly upset, but I had to make this tough decision.


Don't worry, we will still have lab days on Thursday's. They will be a little different in the next half of the semester, but we will still have them. Stay tunned this Thursday for a pre-view of how they will function after we come back from our 4-day weekend.


If you have questions, please post them here. Don't forget that the final drafts are still due this Thursday no matter what. Thanks for understanding. :)
