Orange Day

COLLEGE PREP
1. "The Lottery:" We took notes on the story, discussing symbolism, "the box," Tessie, typological names, etc. A paper was assigned for Monday, where you are to respond to the following: Traditions in our society are often seen as healthy, positive, and beneficial things. But make the argument that "traditions" can be harmful to a society or group of people. This is due on Monday.
2. "In the Twilight:" We began the story in class. You are to finish this for homework. Pay attention to inferences you can make in the story
3. Don't forget that your O.W.L test is on Monday! Study your list

HONORS

1. Mr. Cyr came in and told me I smile too much and would thus never make it at Annapolis
2. "The Birthmark:" We took notes on the story. Be sure to copy them if you were not here (Amanda...haha). We then broke into groups to discuss the ideas of perfection in nature, as well as other transcendent questions. We will go over these on Monday.

ENGLISH 12

1. We took the BEOWULF test today. I will have these corrected for next class
2. Because some people took the whole time, we did not start anything new. We will begin our short story unit on Monday.
