Hello people.
Do you feel it? That’s stress. It’s only going to get more intense.
Here is something to make you forget about it for a moment. Friday is a special day. It is the day, WAAAYYYYYYY back fourteen years ago in 2001, that Mr. Harris and I went on our first date. This is a big day for us!
Here are some snapshots from the more recent past. Can you tell which is from the day we got married?
Well… We didn’t see each other a whole lot this week.
Monday– Opening ceremony took our first two classes, so nothing to talk about for that
Tuesday– We had one period and you got the outline for the song parody project. Here is a link if you lost it: Project 0– Song Parody The Bluest Eye
I have made a YouTube playlist that will help you get some social context so that you can better understand the issues of race that color the themes of the text.
Friday– We were in the library “working” on your EE’s.
Next steps– Work on your song parody this weekend… Read the book!
Some of you may be interested in the article I mentioned today.
Here is a little video to help you relax. I mean really, who doesn’t like baby animals?
NaNoWriMo is coming! If you can write 667 words a day for a month you will have a 20,000 word novel and EXTRA CREDIT for English.
This video talks about the 50,000 word goal for adults, but as students we will let you get away with 20,000…
This little cherub is my niece Harper. She is so proud of her name and the name necklace that she got from Auntie Ciara.
Does she not have the most wonderful expression on her face?
I’m curious how many of you are paying attention to the things I say.
So, if you can mimic one funny animal to me Thursday in class, I will give you 5 bonus points.
Hey people.
You’ve survived the first week, so I think you deserve a video.
