English 10 (All Classes): March 14-18, 2011

Hello Sophomores!

I hope you are all well and that you enjoyed your weekend.
I have a number of things planned for this week.
  • As you know, research papers are due. Please upload them to Moodle by Thursday. 
  • We are in the midst of our study of Age of Reason literature. We'll be reading Patrick Henry's speech to the Virginia Convention, Thomas Paine's The Crisis No. 1, The Declaration of Independence, and the short story "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. I know some of you have already read the aforementioned speech, but we will revisit it and discuss it in the context of the other passages we will be reading. 
  • We will also have a vocabulary quiz on lessons 14-15, so study those words.
  • Finally, if we finish all of the above, we will have a test on the literature from this movement. Should we not get that far, the test will be next week.

See you in class!
Mrs. SO
