IF YOU HAVE INTERNET ACCESS PLEASE CONTINUE ON WITH READING PLUS. I EXPECT THE SAME AMOUNT OF WORK COMPLETED EACH WEEK AS WE WOULD IF WE WERE IN THE CLASSROOM. IF YOU CANNOT ACCESS READING PLUS, YOU WILL HAVE NEWS ELA PACKETS MADE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO PICK UP AT GPS NEXT WEEK. MR. ZIMMERMAN SENT OUT A ROBO CALL YESTERDAY ABOUT IT. IF YOU ARE DOING THE NEWS ELA PACKETS, I EXPECT TWO PACKETS SHOULD BE DONE A WEEK, AND THEN THE QUIZ ANSWERED AT THE END OF EACH PACKET. I WILL COLLECT WHEN SCHOOL IS BACK IN SESSION. THE NEWS ELA PACKETS WILL BE COUNTED FOR A GRADE. HOWEVER, ANY PRACTICE PACKETS YOU MAY HAVE COMPLETED FROM THE LAST TWO WEEKS WILL NOT BE GRADED, BUT I WILL TAKE AS EXTRA CREDIT.

STARTING NEXT WEEK YOU WILL SEE ASSIGNMENTS POSTED ON THIS PAGE.  WE LAST LEFT OFF ON FRANKENSTEIN. WE ALMOST FINISHED THE BOOK. HOWEVER, ONE OF THE THEMES WE SPOKE ABOUT SEVERAL TIMES WAS SYMPATHY VS APATHY. WHO DID WE FEEL BAD FOR? VICTOR? THE MONSTER? DID VICTOR DESERVE EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED TO HIM? WAS VICTOR RIGHT TO KILL THE MONSTER'S MATE? WAS  THE MONSTER ABANDONED BY VICTOR?

THE NEXT UNIT IS THE HOLOCAUST. YOU MAY HAVE HEARD OF IT BEFORE. MAYBE IN SOCIAL STUDIES....MAYBE IN ANOTHER ELA CLASS....MAYBE FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE SPOKE OF IT. THIS WAS A TERRIBLE TIME FOR ALL INVOLVED. IT WAS THE ATTEMPTED EXTINCTION OF THE JEWISH RACE BY NAZI GERMANY.  I HAVE BEGUN POSTING LESSONS: CHECK MY SECOND PAGE!!!!!!
