Hello -
Monday: AP Practice Test. If you are absent and know someone who could bring you a copy, have her see me.
Tuesday: Discussion through C. 19. I'd like to finish reading the novel by Friday. Perhaps we'll have two reading periods in order to do so.
AP for Wednesday, the 22nd
You have nothing new to read. But you do have to read and annotate up to the end of Chapter 14. You know what you're supposed to be looking for and class discussion will be your responsibility tomorrow. Impress me!

Hello All,
Read through the end of chapter 9 in WHs for Friday. Bring the poems I gave you last week on Thursday. We'll have longer reading assignments for HW while we do poetry in class. Use the annotation format on page 15 of your binder as you read.
Friday 10/2 , Monday 10/4, Tuesday 10/5
Hello All,
We'll be discussing C's Nest Friday-Tuesday. Come to class PREPARED to discuss!! You will be prepared if you look at the questions I provided, if you return to the actual text again, and if you have read Plato's allegory. I'm being a bit lenient because of all the stress and anxiety, but you need to do your part - as most everyone is. On Friday you'll get a few poems to analyze. Though unrelated to the text, they express ideas similar to those we are discussing.
Take care, Mrs. Garstka
