Report cards were handed out today, a couple days late due to computer program problems.
Humanities 8
We did a writing workshop today, all about "Where my poetry hides". Students were to make a list of the small moments and items that could be the basis of a poem. We are trying to avoid the HUGE billboard topics of love, death, puppies and flowers.
English 10
We read a short memoir about being 10 years old and a poem called, "On Turning 10". The students were asked to answer a few questions about the poem and we had a discussion about being 10. Good times.
