Announcements

(Updated Nov. 29th, 2009)

Attention BOTH English and reading students:  **Don't forget to be earning 
blue ribbons on Study Island!!**  Any ribbons you earn over the required 15 
will count as extra credit!

Reading students should also be reading AR books (4 / 100 pg. books or one 
400 page book /etc. will be used as four of your test grades!!)

**Both of the above assignments are due Dec. 11th.**  

Another extra credit opportunity is to write your own novel, in honor of
November being "National Novel Writing Month" - the website we're using is 
http://ywp.nanowrimo.org/ (DUE November 30th, the Monday we return from 
Thanksgiving).  

This week in language arts / English classes we'll be working on our speeches 
(to be presented next week!!), and in reading classes we'll continue looking 
at nonfiction, then move on to fables, and learn another poetry term by the 
end of the week.

Go Saints basketball teams!
