Frankenstein Movie

I thought the movie was entertaining. It definitely had similarities and differences from the novel. But in class I did get a little jumpy. Hopefully we can finish it soon!

Blog Post #3

For this easy blog assignment, tell me something specific that you did during your work time on Tuesday while I was out.

Be specific! Write in correct grammar and again, just tell me something specific that YOU did!

See you on Wednesday with your vocab homework and 50 notecards!
Mrs. Moon:

Footage of the entire concert is available on Youtube (Parts 1-10) shot on a handheld by a buddy of mine. You should check it out! (I hope it gives you "nightmares". Haha!)

You can actually see me around the 3:08 mark in this video. (Yes, I am the loser with the KFC bucket on my head trading toys with my idol. Haha!)



See you tomorrow!

Highly Recommend It! The Blogger App

Just downloaded the blogger app! I would reccomend it for those having a hard time keeping up with the post, or just forget to look at it from time to time. It is on Android phones, and is compatible for Ipods/Iphones! Its just like the website...you can publish, post, and view blogs. Super easy!

Link to Article online

Hey Mrs. Moon,

Thanks!

Cloning Post

After you read the article on cloning, post a comment! Basically, you are just giving your opinion on cloning or commenting on anything from the article that you found particularly interesting.

Rules:
1. Write a paragraph
2. Be kind if you disagree with someone
3. Write with correct grammar (capitalize those I's)

Have a wonderful weekend!

Let me know if you need anything!

Just so you know I'm not lying...

My shoes! I actually have more now, as this picture is from last year.

Sympathy

Because I am such a kind person, I will not be deducting points from your college essay if you forgot to put the question at the top. However, you are warned!

Don't forget your vocabulary letter and to study for your quiz!

We will be in the computer lab, so bring your 3x5 index cards!

See you tomorrow!

For tomorrow

When you're typing your college essay that's due tomorrow, please type the question you are answering in bold at the top of your paper.

I will not take it if you don't do this.

Next, last weekend when I was in Asheville, I met a famous celebrity! He was in Asheville filming The Hunger Games movie!! He will be playing the character Haymitch Abernathy.

If you are one of the first three people to tell me tomorrow who this famous person is, I have a treat for you!!

If you want to conference with me about it, it will have to be tomorrow before school or during 4th block. I have a staff meeting after school on Wednesday, so I can't meet then.

Have a great night!

Blog Assignment #2

Ok, for this assignment, you will do the following:

1. Find a piece of print material (newspaper, book, magazine, etc.)

2. Copy one 8 word or more sentence from that print source.

3. Identify each part of speech in that sentence.

So, once you find your sentence, go to the comments section, copy the sentence, then tell what each word is.

We have just done the basics of part of speech, so you  may have some words that you don't know. Take an educated guess.

You won't be graded on getting all the words right, but you will be graded for effort.

Due by 10 pm on Monday.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Thursday, September 1, 2011

Don't forget!

I need your perfect, final draft version of your letter of intent tomorrow! Don't forget it!

Also remember to bring your comments on the college essay.

Good luck!

For those who were absent...

You need to make sure that your letter to me homework gets to me TODAY, or else it is late. You can email it to me or get someone to deliver it.

This pretty much goes for everyone all semester--absences do not matter in terms of assignment due dates!
