Red Day - 09.19.12

AmLit: In class today, we will use the BLANK RUBRIC LINKED HERE. Cut and paste your own into a blank Google Doc, Pages, or Libre Office file and fill in your criteria.

For homework, your only work is to think about what you might choose for your The Things They Carried final project. I will ask for a specific idea next class. Other than that, please be sure you have the following done and ready to hand in:
  • Summer Reading: double check the directions HERE. You may respond to any book as long as it is at an appropriate reading level: fiction, non-fiction, a play, poetry, a collection, whatever! Handing in something - even if it is a short or partially complete assignment - is WAY better than nothing.
  • Your "Things They Carried" short paragraph quiz. We started these in class, but not everyone handed theirs in: please do so, as it is our first real grade of the quarter! Here is the prompt.
