Hey there everyone~

Blog Invitations!

Hello to House One!
I resent invitations to your email addresses.  I'm so glad to see that more of you have joined us here.
I hope everyone in Periods 3, 4, and 6 turned in their revised drafts today!  Period 1, I'll get yours on Monday, right?  :)

Please remind your classmates to join our blog!  Enjoy the weekend.

Thank you, Scholars!

I just wanted to let you all know how much I've enjoyed reading the rough drafts of your sound track essays.  I know the revised drafts will be even better!  Keep writing.  :)  Remember typed revised drafts are due next week Monday for Period 1, Friday for Period 3, Period 4 and Period 6.

(Typed papers should be double spaced, size 12 Times New Roman font.)
