Jan 30

The lovely bellringer for today incorporated our OGT word, which was COMMUNICATE. Yea! After doing that, we used the clickers to finish (finally) our group discussions on Holden (his difficulty with growing up and his argument that adults are phonies). The last 30 minutes of class was devoted to pr acting poems for the Poetry Out Loud contest (or bonus points for those who are less poetic). To memorize, add one line at a time...and practice with appropriate tone, facial expressions, and gestures. Ask Kurt if you need any ideas...Remember that we are reciting starting WEDNESDAY next week. Have a GREAT weekend. Don't "grow up" this weekend! Stay young...
