Schedule for Week of 6 February:
NOTE: We will discuss the writing of your research paper in the form of "mini-lessons" every day this week (with the exception of Tuesday).
A Special Note to Parents: I have provided several resources for your child (see below) in the preparation of this research paper assignment. Sadly, many students have not yet "visited" these resources. (I am able to ascertain the number of "visitors" when I open-up the "Settings" for each of the postings.) Please direct your child to these resources-they are "generic" and can be used for the writing of any research paper.
Monday, 6 February: We will read and discuss Scene Two of Streetcar... Be prepared for a Quick-Write and/or a "surprise" quiz.
Tuesday, 7 February: COURSE SELECTION DAY-This is your last opportunity to take those advanced-level classes during your last year of high school. Discuss this with your parents-you may take at least THREE Advanced Placement classes in Grade 12-this will certainly appeal to college admission officials.

The above links were provided to assist you with obtaining background information for this text. Realizing that some students often refer to study guides prior, during, and after reading a text, I am providing you with these resources at this time. Once we complete the reading of A Streetcar Named Desire, we will begin the reading and discussion of To Kill a Mockingbird.
