Thirty-Seventh Class Period: First Quarter Grade Reports & Library

Grade Reports
Mr. Stone distributed grade reports (except to period one when the classroom printer was not functioning) and returned recent papers. Students were encouraged to review their papers and check them against their grade reports.

Mr. Stone recollected the students' first quarter book reports, Short Story Test Part A, and Short Story Test Part B.

Mr. Stone will be reviewing the Short Story Test Part B to consider alternate answers for five questions.

Library
Students went to the school library to browse for an autobiography or biography to read for their second quarter book reports. Their selections must be at least 150 pages and should not be more than 300 pages without approval from the instructor.

Students may obtain an autobiography/biography from another source if they desire; ultimately, they need to have an autobiography/biography in hand to read for class on Thursday, November 1, 2012.

Homework: Study for the comma test to be taken at the beginning of the next period. Students should review the comma rules handout, and the two comma practice sheets. Students may also find links to online practice quizzes on the upper right-hand corner of this blog.
