I am halfway through with your essays. So far no one has scored under a six and that is GREAT. (say it like Tony the Tiger and it's more fun..Grrrrrrrrrrreat!!!) This one had a little twist to it and you all (so far) have handled it well. Kudos. I will get them back to you ASAP.

Please don't forget to get your permission forms signed. I would really like you to be one of my videos. I chose your class for the whole class discussion because I think you will be wonderful at it. I think many of you understand this book and we are finally together again as a class to be able to discuss something. I was so disappointed I didn't get to discuss OMAM or The Great Gatsby with you because I LOVE LOVE LOVE those books. I hope you can make it on Friday. BTW-If we are filming on Friday I would have to push the vocab test back to Monday. We wouldn't have time for both. If too many of you are going to be absent, I will have to cancel the filming-we are already so small I am not sure my graders would believe my "whole class discussion" was really only six people. Or.........do I save the discussion for Monday and do the test on Friday as planned. Now that's a possibility. We could just set the chapter that everyone should be in by Monday..............hm........I think THAT'S what I'll do. Okay:

Vocab Test on Friday
Discussion for TEWWG on Monday. I know it's 2 days after the quiz, but you'll deal. It gives you time to think about what you want to talk about. We should still have time to edit narratives.

Yes you can do vocab tomorrow (although I am probably posting this too late for you to see) and I am REALLY glad you like the book. I have heard B say he hates it so I wonder if it's a "girl" book or if he just doesn't like the dialect aspect of it.
