I'm Back.

Okay, so I'm back, but I've done no grading. TOO SICK!!!! I am finishing up everything hopefully by this weekend. Anything I don't finish, I'll post next semester. I am trying to get back into the swing of things. You guys need to be finishing up all work and getting ready for the final. First period White day. If you want a study guide come by my office before monday. See you in class.

Sick Teacher

Okay, so it's Sunday and I am still really sick. I won't be at school on Monday. I don't know about tuesday yet. You guys need to be reading the Birds, Cask of Amontillado, and Most Dangerous Game. Honors should also read Percus. Continue to work on your projects for the end of the semester. I'm almost finished with the test and should be posting them on Icue by tomorrow. Hopefully I can finish the essays too. Be good for the sub. Kimberly Guinn

Slacker

Okay, so I've been slacking on the blogger. Thanks Terry for point this out. Between your tests, essays, and my homework, life has gotten a little hectic. So here's what's up. Everyone should be reading The Most Dangerous Game and Cask of Amontillado. The seven crucial questions should be answered for each story. Every class will be given (some already have) a list of project ideas. Honors must choose three to do and Regular must choose one. Everyone can do 1 extra for bonus. These are due on the day of your final: 1st block White Day: due Monday December 19th, 1st block blue day:due Tuesday, December, 20th, 3rd and 4th block white day: due Wednesday, December 21st, and 3rd and 4th block blue day: due Thursday, December 22nd. The final will be the same as the pretest from the beginning of the year. I want to see how far you have come. This test is worth 20% of your final grade. Just to let you know. Study hard these last few weeks.
