- The timed writing was not due, but will be used next class period. I shortened your time and said you had less time than you did to simulate writing pressure.



I meant to assign homework in A Separate Peace, but the power outage apparently also meant a loss of brain power; I forgot. Next class period we will read ch. 1-3. I had it written on the board to read 1-2, and if you did that you are just a bit ahead. If you did not do that, read ch. 1-3 before Thursday.

War Journal

Remember to complete your war journals over break if you choose to turn it in Monday. Someone left one in a desk. It is in a black three ring binder and has no name on it. The cover sheet says: War Journal (1943-2001).

This is an economical deal - the cheapest college credit you can get - and everyone has put in a years worth of hard work. I encourage you to sign up.

War Journal

(probably too late to help, but I noticed I forgot to offically mention this to W6)
War Journal suggested due date is Thursday - but the full due date is the Monday after spring break. I reccommend turning it in before break just so you have nothing over your head during break.
