Hello and happy Tuesday! I am happy to see that some of you have already submitted your Night Tests yesterday. If you are still working on your test, it is due today by 11:59 PM, so make sure that you are working on it and turn it in (go back to yesterday's blog post for any links you need). Today, you're going to work on finishing what you need to turn in for the Night Unit and then working on TED Talk Tuesday.
Below is a video walking you through the assignments that are due today, including the TED Talk Tuesday assignment for this week:
Your Snapshot of Images Assignment that you started last week is due today. Please take a picture of your assignment (you only need to take a picture of side with the table on it) and submit it here
Turn in BOTH Night assignments by 11:59 PM TODAY, Tuesday, March 17.

Hello and happy Tuesday! I am happy to see your submissions of your character mask assignment and of the form for Act IV from yesterday. If did not get a chance to submit your mask assignment or fill out the Act IV form, remember to do it as soon as you can so that you don't fall behind (go back to yesterday's blog post for any links you need). Today, you're going to work on finishing Romeo and Juliet. Many of you have a copy of the graphic novel at home, but if you do not, here is a PDF of the play (read the "Modern Text" on the odd numbered pages).
These are the questions that are at the end of Act IV on your graphic organizer. If you submit the form, you do not need to fill them out in your green packet. :)
