We took the vocab quiz for Unit 7 today; then students counted vocab stamps and turned in the books. If you forgot your book today, be sure to remember it tomorrow!

For tomorrow:
Be sure that you have finished Chapter 8 of All Quiet on the Western Front.
Remaining reading:
Chapter 9 by Friday (may or may not be a reading check quiz on Ch. 8/9
Chapter 10--some class time on Friday
Rest of 10 and Chapters 11 and 12 (12 is VERY short): by Monday

We will take some time tomorrow to talk about the final, which is on Thursday, Feb. 1.

Tomorrow--Vocabulary Quiz, Unit 7. Bring your vocab books so we can count stamps.

By Thursday, you should have read Chapters 8-9 of All Quiet; the book should be finished by Monday.

Today, as you know, we had time for only a couple of groups to present after the quiz. We will definitely finish up tomorrow, and make good headway into Chapters 4 and 5. Friday there will be a quiz over Chapters 6 and 7.

Unit 7 vocabulary work is due on Monday, Jan. 22; the quiz will be Wed., Jan. 24.

Simply incredible. Seven days gone from one semester . . .

OK, so last Thursday, we were to have had a reading-check quiz over chapters 4-6 and finished up the World War I reports. We will proceed with the quiz first thing tomorrow, and I hope we have time to finish the reports since it will be (alas) a Wednesday schedule. Remember that I returned them to everyone; be sure that you have your copy with you in class if you are in the groups that didn't present last week.

Vocabulary work for Unit 7 is due on Monday, Jan. 22, and the quiz will be Wednesday, Jan. 24.

You will receive an updated reading schedule for the rest of the novel tomorrow.

TUESDAY
Today in Class
Some group time for WWI reports. I collected them; you will get them back before your presentation. A bit of Chapter 2 "philosophical" discussion.

Wednesday in Class:
Group reports

For Thursday: You should be finished with Ch. 4-6. This stands even if we have a weather day on Wednesday.

THURSDAY

For today, you were to have read the first three chapters of All Quiet on the Western Front. We had a sample "reading check" quiz today, and discussed various aspects of the first couple of chapters (though we didn't quite cover all of the quiz answers). We will continue that discussion for tomorrow.

Homework:
You will need to pace yourself according to your schedule and your reading strength/skills. Chapters 4-6 must be read by next Wednesday, Jan. 10. Most of you cannot wait until Tuesday night to read 82 pages. So please get it underway soon.
