Thursday and Friday March 31

Thursday was the OSSLT .... very exciting ... not.

Friday we read to page 149, the end of Chapter 42. We got the following for homework, and ... well, here is the picture of the entire set of questions due on Tuesday, April 4th

I was also asked to put the link on this post for the Newspaper Article also due. There it is.

OK, well, I'm trying to be helpful but it's Friday.

Wednesday March 29

A nice easy day from the English teacher for my 2P students.

We read from the novel - we got to page 127 before stopping. I'm hoping that my students will take the time tonight, get a lot of water and a good night's sleep before the OSSLT tomorrow.

No homework on the novel - we'll catch up on that later. Next due date is April 4th.

Please ... sleep and water!

Oh, and check out this link. It's for stress relief.

Tuesday March 28

We did a fair amount of reading today - we got to the end of Chapter 29 in the text and got the questions to the end of Chapter 29, too.

I also gave some writing suggestions, too. We will follow up on those suggestions as we get closer to the CA for the course.

We should be reading the book tomorrow,  have the OSSLT on Thursday and get on with handing in things by April 4. If you check the due dates, stuff is due then, too.

Friday and Monday March 27

Man, I'm shaking my own head sometimes.

In any case, we've read to the end of Chapter 29 in the novel.

We did get all the questions:

We do need to get the character sketches done for ourselves.

ok, on we go for tomorrow!

Thursday March 23

Here is the link for the Newspaper Article for Eye of the Dragon.

Wed March 22

Man, I have to apologise ... keeping this blog up to date has been a real benefit to support the learning of my students in this class.

I will do better.

In this class, we continue to read Eye of the Dragon. We got to the end of Chapter 23 today. I will get a picture of the list of questions for the class up on this blog tomorrow.

In any case, I will do better - keep up your hard work.

I also did show all present students an actual mark in class today or yesterday. Of course, I had a number of assignments without a name on them, and so I will get these marks updated before too long.

Thursday and Friday March 3

I am sorry for not posting yesterday.

It was nice and boring in Period One both days. We read the book, we talked about the homework and chatted about Stephen King and his writing.

Educational and a bit of fun. Creepy, too. Eye of the Dragon, like most of Mr. King's writing, is starting off nice and slow. He is setting up the pieces of the story for later on in the book.

We've gotten to Page 39 and got the following questions for homework so far:

Please be safe this weekend and we'll see you on Monday!
