TODAY'S LESSON AND HOMEWORK
Theme for the Year: CONNECTIONS
Remember -- as you leave my classroom,
be sure to thank someone
for helping us have a good English class.
Homework Assignment
1) Post a comment on "The English Forum" by Sunday night.
2) Practice reading aloud your passage from TOTC. Work on getting the right "mood" in your voice by raising and lowering your voice. Read like an actor on stage. Tomorrow, you will stand in front of the class and read your passage aloud for a grade -- and my standards for a passing grade will be extremely high.
3) Watch this video very carefully. Take some notes and be ready to show your understanding of the video in class tomorrow.
