Woo-hoo! Happy birthday to me, and Emily S. and Christine N. and Marilyn Monroe and Morgan Freeman and... (Okay, I'll stop harping on my birthday already. I've only been talking about it since September!)

Today in class--

Freshmen:
No new vocabulary this week, although we WILL still have a quiz on Friday that could include any of these words, or these.
We reviewed the Unforgettables and added the last 2. That brings us to 16 total. You should be ready and able to identify them on your final.
We had a few volunteers deliver their Prologues. We'll continue taking volunteers this week, and then start assigning times to speak it next week.
Then, we read R & J 5.1. Only 2 scenes left. We may just finish the play tomorrow...we'll see.

AP Lit:
We continued reading The Importance of Being Earnest and the ridiculousness has really begun. We'll finish this up and say our goodbyes to seniors this week. I'll have completely updated grades for you in class tomorrow. And, extra credit vocab quizzes are still available before school, after school or during 4th period this week.
