Last week, we read and annotated and discussed Of Mice and Men in class.  CP students wrote sentences with appositives while the academic students wrote sentences with participial phrases.  Everyone had a quiz on Monday, 10/21.  Oh, and we had Homecoming and won the game last Friday, Oct. 25! :)

We started this week with a vocabulary quiz as well.  We will continue to read and annotate the novel OMM until we finish it at the end of this week.  Prepare for a UNIT test on Monday next week, Nov. 4.
