Today's Objective: Students will continue pre-writing their Q1 final projects


Today's SAT Word: Tandem (n.): Pair

When doing our peer reviews of our first essays, we worked in tandems.


Today's Soundtrack: "Everybody" (Backstreet's Back) by The Backstreet Boys

We have chosen this song today because it has a repeated use of the word "body" throughout its verses and chorus. Today, we are learning all about how to structure the *body* paragraphs of our essays.


Today's Warm-Up Question:

Today is ALTER-EGO day! Today’s the day we all get to pretend to be somebody else.

If you’re in costume:
What is YOUR alter-ego? And what made you choose that alter-ego?

If you’re not in costume:
What made you decide not to come in costume today?

Tonight's Homework:


Continue working on your Q1 final compositions. Remember:
  • Completed compositions must be submitted BOTH by printed hard copy and by e-mail to john.meehan@pgcps.org no later than FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29 at 5 p.m.


  • YOU MUST submit your composition BOTH as a hard copy AND as an e-mail by the assigned due date. Failure to submit EITHER one or the other will result in an automatic 50% ("E") grade for the project.


  • This project will count for roughly 25% of your overall assessment grade for the marking period.


  • There will be no extensions given on this project.
