Overall, it was a solid week. You've grown in your thinking and participation. Big thumbs up to those folks getting after the Big Ideas with maturity and an open mind. Crazy week; short post!
Before we get too far down the rabbit hole of last week, let me assure you that you will have ONE FINAL CLASS DAY of work time to get caught up -- to cross your Ts, dot your Is, and circle your wagons. It was a wacky week with my senior field trip, AP conference, and kid field trip chaperone day (AKA -- 3 subs for some of you), but here's a quick rundown. Links are included, so make sure you're clicking if you've been absent. Monday: All Summer in a Day & Dystopia passage analysis Tuesday: Mentor Text, Disco Papa Wednesday: Mentor Text writing assignment One Night Essay Thursday: Essay work day Friday: The Lottery reading & comic assignment complete with comic strip for your work As mentioned above, tomorrow is for WORK. Come in swinging!  Hello!
