Sorry, Blogger has been giving me problems

Hello, and welcome to 2nd semester.
We have been at it for 2 weeks now. WOW

Ok, so far we have finished Lesson 8 in Wordly wise and have taken the quiz.
We are up to WW 9d now. That and WW 9c are due on Thursday, January 27, 2005.
Today we started reading the next story in class. "By the Waters of Babylon". This is a wonderful tale that keeps you guessing through the whole story.
We are working on the "POINT OF VIEW" of the story and what the author is sharing with us.

Speech has become Debate.

This semester I have found a book to use and am making copies for the students. They are to have a 3 ring binder to keep the chapters in and paper to do their work. This is really all that I am asking them to bring to class.

We have some major definitions to come to terms with before we can starting doing real debates. I hope to have one good debate before the end of this marking period, which will end on March 24th, before we leave for Spring Break.

Have a nice end of January.
Mrs. Frederick
