Today's work - Monday, March 13

Hello all,

Sorry I can't be with you today. Here is your work for the day. Look for which class applies to you then get right down to it. There is only a week of work left so keep up with every day's assignment so as not to fall behind. If you are curious about where you are standing with your marks email me today and I will try to get back to you.

You will have the period to work on your project which is due next Tuesday (21st). Some of you have been looking for more clarity on this assignment. Basically here is what I am looking for: You need to create an orignial, creative project that will show your understanding of Into Thin Air by responding to one of the critical analysis questions you were given (Mrs. Hillman has a copy of these questions). Make sure this critical analysis question is shown somewhere on the project. You must also give three quotes from the novel that show a progression or change in character. This can be done in any format you wish though I would encourage trying something new - stay away from the simple poster unless it is of a more impressive nature (like Nikki's Night poster). Take today to design what your project is going to look like. You will also be getting participation marks for this assignment so spend your time wisely because people are watching...scary eh?
