Language Arts Homework due Tuesday, March 2: Students should bring in their completed Weekly Word sheets, as well as five sentences using their chosen words.

Language Arts Homework due Thursday, March 4: Students should write a paragraph on the question: What is culture? They should also answer the review questions at the end of chapter four.

Ongoing Homework: Students should remember to read for thirty minutes each evening. Reading the assigned novel does count towards the nightly reading. Remember there are no restrictions on what you choose to read, as long as you make sure you get your assigned reading done. Please remember to record the date, the title of what you read, and how many pages you read on your Reading Journal entry form. Please turn in your entry forms on Friday, so that I can review how your reading is going. I will return them to you on Monday. I would encourage you to keep up with your reading over the weekend.


In Cultural Studies the students read their short mini-essays on the question, What is Culture? We then spent the class discussing, responding, and sharing thoughts on the mini-essays. 


In drama we worked on honing the presentational aspects of parent/teacher/student conferences.
