4th 1/4 - 14th week's lessons - 5/4 - 5/8 - 2009

Benjamin Disraeli said, "Nurture your mind with great thoughts, for you will never go any higher than you think." As we finish this quarter, this semester, this year - finish strong; think of all you still can do this semester. "Excellence is the gradual result of always wanting to do better." stated Pat Riley. And if you want to do better - first, you may make up any reading points from the last entry on Aeries. Second, I have a project for you and your parents to do together. Third, you may answer questions on page 1103 (it must be typed, MLA format, question incorporated in the answer with developed complete sentences, due by Friday). Fourth, if you still have your Anticipation Guide review your answers and explain any change of mind that you now have (due Wednesday). Fifth, you may see me for a writing prompt for a Romeo and Juliet essay.
