Tuesday/Wednesday, 11/10-11/09

*Sorry about the tardiness in getting this up - the internet was down at school all day yesterday:

Academic Skills

1. Finish the Tutorial Tuesday summary/reflection section.

Composition
1. Study the vocab & the flashcards. Don't forget to have your VPP book on Thursday.
2. Reflect on the verdict from the Montresor trial (the juries in both classes found in favor of the prosecution -- Montresor is guilty of first degree murder and will face the death penalty!)...Was it fair? Why or why not? What are your thoughts about the trial? What could the defense or prosecution have done differently? We will turn in the reflections, the notes from class, and the CD sheets on Thursday.

World Literature
1. Study the vocab & the flashcards. Don't forget to have your VPP book on Thursday.
2. Be ready for the theme/irony/foreshadowing test on Thursday. You may use any class notes or any notes you take at home on the test. The test will concern "Casey at the Bat" by Ernest Thayer. If you would like to reread the poem, you can find it by clicking here.
