Almost the End

First off, don't forget to wear you snazzy AP Lit original t-shirt tomorrow for our group photos. With all the testing on Friday, we may have some missing faces, but we definitely want a remembrance of the class.

As mentioned in second hour today, we are short on several of the books from AP Lit. This includes your big green textbook, Grendel, King Lear, The Cherry Orchard, The Metamorphosis, Frankenstein, and Wuthering Heights. With senior fines due prior to your exit next week, I will be fining students who want a keepsake from the class.

We wrapped up the alternative assessment today and grades are posted. There are only 2 grades that will be added to fifth hour (ch.12-14 close reading and Friday's participation); there are only 3 grades that will be added to second hour (ch.12-14 close reading, Thursday's silent discussion board - fabulous thoughts from you all - and Friday's participation). Of course, I will also be adding extra credit for those of you in the top 37. That will not be until after AP Lang finishes their reviews, so for those of you who spent quality time with  me during lunches and after school will have to wait for that component. Technically, you can still come to reviews if you want.

See you tomorrow - with a lot of textbooks - and we will finish our analysis of Wuthering Heights and start watching the movie. I can't believe we only have 2 classes left in this vintage of AP Lit!
