Magnificent, maniacal, mysterious, meaningful, memorable, merry, misunderstood, modest, momentous, mottled MONDAY!

We started off the day in Mrs. Smith’s English 9 Honors class period 2 by greeting our substitute for the day, Mr. Rosenberg. After reviewing the PowerPoint for the weekly schedule, the rest of class was a work period. Things we did today:

³  Read The Rise and Fall of Motivation 2.0 (chapter 1 of Drive) and annotated it

³  Read A Whole New Mind
