Reading and English Class News

We've already taken our first reading test, and I was blown away!   The grades ranged from
69-100 with scores predominantly in the 90's.  Good job!

We are currently reading "Stop the Sun" about the problems a Vietnam veteran is having
with flashbacks and post-traumatic stress.  Use the history channel link to learn more about this period in our country's history.  The test will be Friday.

What would your life be like if you were unable to read and write?  This is the question we are exploring in English class with our "Nightjohn" unit.  Our first essay will be due next week--a narrative dealing with this topic.
