Today was the final day to work on autobiographies. All autobiographies should have been passed into me by the end of the day. Please make sure you bring your journals and novels with you to class tomorrow.   *Please be reading your novel at home (20-30 mins per night).

Today students were in the computer lab working on their autobiographies.    You will have time to work on them again on Monday as I will be booking th lab for us. The due date has been extended to Monday September 21, 2015 (NO excuses!)   Please be advised that students should only be working on this assignment at school and not at home. There was no homework assigned last week and this week for a reason.   **Make sure you bring a novel with you on Monday!

Please have your test outline completed for tomorrow's class.    We will be going over the test outline in class tomorrow (it is important for you to be there!) This is your study guide for your history test which will be on Monday.
