English 9
1. Continue to bring your IR (Independent Reading) book every day.
2. Bring your binder every day. Be ready for binder checks next week: Binders should contain blank paper and all previous notes and assignments should be organized in chronological order.
3. Finish the vocabulary word sentences and meaning guesses we started in class. Click here to read "The Sniper" by Liam O'Flaherty if you lost your copy -- remember that seven of the words come from the story.
Words:
1. Imply (no sentence)
2. Defer
3. Fester
4. Beleaguered
5. Spasmodically
6. Ascetic
7. Tattered
8. Turret
9. Paroxysm
10. Concussion
*remember not to look up the definition, but to guess the meaning after you copy the sentence in which it was used in the story

Physical Education
1. Choose two of the stretches we practiced in class and do them for at least 30 seconds. Make sure to warm up for at least five minutes first. Then write about what you did for the warm-up and how the stretches went. Do this same thing two days in a row (same stretches).

*UPDATE: Added binder reminder to English 9
