--worked on review writing for second choice book. Posted reviews on library "Destiny."
(FROM SCHOOL, login at lrodalib. User name is your Questia name. Password is your Questia password.) Click in the reviews tab, then select "write review."
--Worked on the Curious Dog writings. Remember: you must write about a moment in time! If you are going to be a football, you might consider writing about one key pass. If you are an infant, write about seeing a strange face. You get the idea, I hope. Be specific and go into detail! Length: 1 page, dbl spaced, times new roman, 12 point font. Include full heading and creative title.

Homework
--Finish up your perspective writings (aka Curious Dog writings)

HONORS CLASS
--I gave you one more day until deadline for your presentations on Gangster. Don't procrastinate with the extra time. Use it only as emergency "sponge" time. Remember that your projects should be creative and sensory, but you are still responsible for content. We should recognize your chapter in your work.

--If you are struggling with this, ground your work in concrete language from the text. All of you should be dealing closely with text! Find those lines in your chapter that are critical, beautiful, strange, imaginative. Those places are where the heart of this assignment can be found.

--We'll start presentations Wednesday, our long period.
