Transition!
We have finally finished our unit on Dante's Inferno, and will be moving on to Sophocles' Oedipus the King next. Be sure to bring your literature textbook to class each day!
Our next vocabulary test will be Thursday, November 11 (for blocks 1, 3, 7, & 8) or Friday (for blocks 2 & 6). This is for the unit 14 words.
Senior Memory Book chapter 4 is due before the students leave for Thanksgiving Break. Please note that if you are taking all of Thanksgiving week off, this means you must turn in your chapter by the Friday before break. If you will be at school through Tuesday, then you may turn in your chapter on Tuesday. As always, electronic copies may be sent to my school email at kvanderhoek@coopersville.k12.mi.us.
If you are planning to go hunting next week, please be sure to check on homework assignments (there will be some!) and get any handouts and notes you miss (there will be lots!).
Have a great week!

NOVEMBER!!!
I can't believe it's already November!! Only 7 weeks 'til Christmas!! =)
This week is the final week of the first marking period. All missing work, tests, and quizzes must be completed by the end of the school day Friday, Nov. 5 in order to be graded in time for report cards.
This week, groups will prepare final presentations for their Inferno Circles. Presentations will be made in class on Wednesday (blocks 3, 7) or Thursday (blocks 1, 2, 6, 8). I will be at a Strategic Planning meeting on Thursday in the Administration Building, but the subsititute will listen to presenatations. After presentations, we will watch the movie What Dreams May Come starring Robin Williams. It is about a man who makes a journey through Hell to find his true love. Sound familiar? :)
