Thursday, February 21st

Even Classes:

Hi students! Today we did a lot! We talked about the final project that we will be working on for the remainder of the advisory: A Multi-genre Research paper. You are probably not familiar with multi-genre research papers--this means you must come see me before school or during lunch. This project is in place of your final exam this advisory, so if you do not complete it thoroughly or adequately you will not be able to earn above a D grade in the class. Don't wait! Come see me!!! You will not want to get behind or miss class because everything we will be doing builds on each other.

Your homework for Monday is the following:

1. Read The Great Gatsby Chapter 1.
2. Pay attention to the reading questions for chapter 1 because I will choose 4 of the 12 as questions for the punctual piece.
3. Complete the anticipation guide for The Great Gatsby.
4. Finalize your topic for your multi-genre paper and find 5 sources and bring them to class with you on Monday: we will be working on MLA documentation so you will want to have your sources in class.


As always, if you have questions, please ask!
