English 9 Class Notes
Objectives: Freshmen 1) wrote expository-analytical paragraphs, and 2) read independently.
Freshmen, we didn’t do anything terribly hard today in practicing paragraphs again, this time about our favorite holidays. The real challenge this time was making sure you had enough words in sentences 2, 3, and 4, to make your ideas clear and engaging.
As I said in class before we dismissal today, I’m grateful this holiday to be working with each and every one of you this year, thankful that we have the opportunity to interact with and learn from each other, and appreciative that we grow together as we explore ideas in literature and express new ones in compositions.
Have a great holiday, and remember that CDO’s Sign Language Club is collecting the following items for our service members abroad. The last day to donate is Monday, November 30:
- White socks (with no markings)
- Light blankets and character-themed sheets
- Energy drinks, beef jerky
- Snacks like cookies, chips, and candy in sturdy packages
- Hand sanitizer, moist hand wipes, medical gloves
- Sports magazines and Frisbees
- Flash drives
- Letters (none of your own personal information)
- NO PORK OR PRODUCTS AND NO COFFEE
See you next week.
