For Tuesday the 25th...


Please read pages 49-52 in The House on Mango Street.
I'm not assigning a Golden Line or any other writing with this, but I will hint that there might be quiz. Maybe. And it may not be open book.

I'm just saying. It could happen.


That is all.

For the long weekend...


You'll be reading pages 33-38 in The House on Mango Street. When you're done reading, I'd like you to think about (and then write down) the answer to the following question:

Why does Darius say the cloud is God?


Otherwise, enjoy the long weekend and stay safe.

Tomorrow, and tomorrow...


Tuesday, at the end of class, your "My Ideal Home" project is due. We'll be in the writing lab all class, but you should have a good plan about what you're going to do before then.

Wednesday, we'll be having a quiz on Vocab Unit 11 (words 1-10). As per normal, flashcards will be collected for credit.

See you then.

For the weekend...and next week.


Due this Tuesday, the 18th of March:

Write a one (1) page paper describing what your ideal house would look like. I’m interested in what sort of rooms, color, shape, style, and so forth. Things to keep in mind:

• Be specific. Details, as always, will be rewarded.
• Organize. Make sure you describe things in an order that makes sense.
•Explain. Details are great, but to succeed on this assignment, you need to explain the why of your choices.

Also, you’ll need to include a drawing of your ideal home. This should be colorful- I’m not looking for a pen drawing on lined notebook paper done in homeroom. If you like, you can use collage, computer graphics, markers, photography, or whatever other creative means you’d like. This needs to be 2D. Please no models of the house. Keep your drawings sized to standard letter paper (8.5" by 11").
