Word of the day: taciturn
Distributed form to be completed tomorrow in the library. Read and reconstructed the NY Times article by R. Kennedy to model expectations for analysis paper due tomorrow. Remember: it must be typed, double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font. Students gave me their book titles for their second quarter outside reading. Assessment is next Tuesday, 12-6. Finally, signed research paper contracts are due tomorrow. This is step one of your research paper project and counts as a test grade.
