April 8-12
The last term is well underway.

10-English
Students need to choose a new novel for their last essay.  This essay will be about the major theme of the novel, and its minor themes. The essay is Due by May 8th.  If students read 10 pages a night, they will have enough time to finish the novel and complete the essay on time.  Some class time will be given for the reading of the novel, so students should bring it to class each day.
In class, we are reading the play Twelfth Night. Students are acting out the scenes each day, and writing in their journals.  The journals will become part of their reading and writing grades for the term.  An assignment on the Globe Theatre is now past due.  Some students still need to pass this into Mr. Griffin.
