For the Weekend: October 27–28

This is the last weekend of the first quarter, and a good opportunity for you to reflect on all your classes and execute an action plan that allows you to end the quarter on an upswing.

Your biggest priority, for both American Literature and American History, is to push forward with your IRP research. Next week, Josh will be conducting a formal IRP status check, which will be a significant factor in your quarter grade for both classes. You will be considered “caught up” and will earn a 4 for this grade if you have the following at school:

To allow you more time for IRP research, the reading schedule for Song of Solomon backs off a bit this weekend. Read the relatively short chapter 11 (to page 285) for next Tues./Wed. (depending on your block). Bring your thesis log total to 14.

If you haven’t already, finish a complete draft of your Moving Voices narrative by Monday. This is vital for the scene group work you will be doing all week next week.
