Greetings Juniors (and some seniors):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope the start of this week presents suitable opportunities for you to investigate new ideas via a memoir genre, write some thoughtful responses, and reflect in more ways about life and living. This week, I expect you to do three things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Read\u00a0<\/strong>Nickle and Dimed<\/em>\u2026about a chapter\/part a day (reading schedule posted to google classroom as well as the link to this ethnographic memoir). It is helpful to keep a dialectical Journal and\/or engage in discussion circles as you read to help you remember ideas and events\/pose questions and reflect on themes (The dialectical journal\/discussion circle is not required but may aid you in your responses later\/handout posted to google classroom). <\/li>
  2. Respond<\/strong>\u00a0in a\u00a0meaningful\u00a0<\/em>way to questions (posted ideas for you to choose from in google classroom but I am open to your suggestions about any ideas you may also have). Reading responses are due the week after our spring break (4\/13 thru 4\/17) although you are encouraged to complete one after you finish reading each part this week.<\/li>
  3. Relax\u00a0<\/strong>from\u00a0research<\/em>\u00a0a bit\u2026I will keep checking the sources\u00a0(you should have 1, 2, and 3 turned in so far)<\/em>\u00a0and feedback to you so that you can work better on sources 4 and 5. I will set the due dates for those later as well. All of source 2 feedback has been returned. Use it to refine source 3 if needs be. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    My goals this week will be threefold as well:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Communicate regularly with you <\/strong>Please forward any questions\/concerns to me. I will get back with you as soon as possible, especially during our regular school hours.<\/li>
    2. Continue returning your work and providing feedback<\/strong> to steer you.<\/li>
    3. Compile more AP Lang resources<\/strong>  those of you who are looking for a more test practice (see AP Lang Test Resources in Google Classroom). <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      This will be our last week before break next week, so spend it wisely and well. I had a bad case of dehydration this past week and I have a lingering headache because of that\u2026Remember to stay hydrated, healthy, and home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      I miss you much,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
