Ok, so you all know I’m talking FIGURATIVELY eating cookies, right?

This week we’ll be PIGGING OUT on those figurative cookies.  Hopefully, Pre-APeeps, you filled your bellies with a little “Most Dangerous Game” this weekend while you worked on your analysis.   I acknowledge that this is a challenging assignement – please send me an email if you have questions, or come to tutorials in the morning.  We’ll actually spend a little bit of time on it tomorrow, so don’t panic too much. 

Once we finish with “The Most Dangerous Game,” my Regulators will move on to Jack London’s “To Build a Fire”.   THAT, my chickadees, is CLASSIC Man Vs. Nature!!!  

Pre-APeeps will get some well-needed instruction on annotating and then practice, practice, practice.   Next we’ll read Robert Cormier’s “The Moustache”.  (KLEENEX ALERT!)

I don’t know about you, but I have really enjoyed familiarizing ourselves with the Qwizdom system.   I’m looking forward to using this interactive system more often!    What a great way to assess learning and have fun at the same time.  Stay tuned for more quizzes!!!

I’m working on getting everyone their own Gaggle email address.  Having a Gaggle email is important for a couple of reasons.  One – we’ll be working in our Ning (short for social networking) soon, and you need an email address to join, and two – Gaggle is safe & smart – anything & everything you do with it is 100% safeguarded by me.   Sooooooooo if you haven’t turned your Web Publishing Permission form into me, please do so ASAP, because you won’t be able to participate if I don’t have that back from your parents.

Oh, and please be sure to check out our class calendars.  You can always access these to know what’s going on in class for the week.
