This week you will continue to work in our book, reviewing and practicing strategies that will help you succeed on the SAT.  Remember to pace yourself, trying to complete two chapters a week.  Always ask for help if you don't understand something!

11th Academic English
This week we will continue our review of the Parts of Speech.  We will check your answers on each of the worksheets you completed in class, then will take a quiz on this information.  We will check your vocabulary work later in the week, so make sure you have all of that completed.

12th Academic English
This week we will discuss the Anglo-Saxon poetry you've read and annotated in class.  Be prepared to discuss both the pagan belief in Fate and the Christian belief in Free Will found in each of these poems.  You will begin a writing project based on this poetry and will begin a study of Beowulf later in the week.
