WHERE IS SMITH??

The zombies that walked into school after a "restful" weekend quickly awoke, when they discovered that Smith was unexpectedly gone, and there was a sub. But I think we all secretly missed the "Hello Smith."

What was due today:

• Fahrenheit 451 pg. 68-91 (fishbowl)
• Macbeth Essay edits
• Symbolic Elements group projects

What we did in class today:

• Presented brief explanations of symbolic elements projects (Clarisse, fire, books, porches, ventilator grille, pills, hands, dandelions, lighter, and the moon).
• The remaining class time was spent catching up on work: either reading Fahrenheit 451, doing the SAT words for this week, or reading banned books.
• Due to Smith's absence, we did not do the Fishbowl for Fahrenheit pages 68-91, so we will be doing that tomorrow.

Homework:

· Discussers and presenters for fishbowl tomorrow, bring good questions

· Fahrenheit 451 pg. 91-136-due Wednesday, October 27 (Fishbowl)

· SAT #8-due Friday, October 29

· SAT #8 quiz-on Friday, October 29

· Read Banned Book-project will be due sometime at the beginning of November, so do not be caught the night before finishing the book!
