Today I passed out the rubric for the "Make your Own Pilgramage" assignment. In class we worked on this for most of the class. We also listened to a musical version of Barbara Allen and agreed as a class that some things are better left unheard.

No "official" HW on the weekends- so enjoy.

Today in class, we worked on understanding your vocab words in the context of the sentence. Each group was given the page numbers of your vocab, and asked to rewrite the sentence using the def rather than the word.

During the 2nd 1/2, we talked about IM as slang. I passes out a sheet of IM terms for you to use, if Holden could text.

Please finish both if you did not have time to finish for HW.

Also- study vocab words/ read CH 14, 15.
