HONORS ENGLISH
1. "A&P:" The story was to be read for today (per Mr Lessard last Friday). We did the activities pertaining to the story, including the discussion of "perceptions" verses merely "seeing." We had a discussion of the story as a class, and discussed the transcendent issues available in the story.
2. Point, Question, Connect: We learned this strategy for responding to literature.
3. Paper due on Thursday: C.S. Lewis said "we read to know we're not alone." Respond to this idea by applying it to one (or more than one) story we have read thus far in our short story unit. If you need help or clarification with this, PLEASE come see me

PUBLIC SPEAKING
1. "Advertising character" quiz (for fun, not graded!)
2. Analysis of commercial advertisements....discussion of what is (and is not) effective in commercials
3. We will have our next project assigned to us on Thursday. Also, be prepared to do a DAILY, as we havent had one in a LONG time....
