CURRICULUM NIGHT 6:30

TODAY IN CLASS
Homework papers on "The Rocking-Horse Winner" were collected.  In 4th, we got partway through the story discussion; in 6th we finished, but it was a light going-over.  I may have you add a thought or two tomorrow!

HOMEWORK
Be working on the draft of your 500-650 word essay.  Remember, this CANNOT be one of the short pieces or a collection of paragraph answers.  Unless you have cleared a specific other topic with me, stick to the Common App or UW questions given to you on the hand-out.  Yes, this hand-out was attached to Thursday's blog last week.

You must have the completed hard copy of the draft with you in class on Thursday to receive process points.

Double-space; include a word count
Forgot to mention the early start time in class.  For senior parents, who are used to the usual later time, the 6:30 start could be a surprise.

For you all, working diligently at home:
