Happy Monday - I'll be out for a couple of days. I had a motorcycle accident on Saturday evening. My back tire went out from under me when it slid on some wet paint on Witkoppen. One minute I was up, and a millisecond later, I was rolling down the road. Not pretty. But, some nice folks stopped to help me and all my Harley friends came thundering down the road to my rescue, stayed with me in the hospital, and then made sure I was home safe.
BUT, NO WORRIES, I AM FINE. Nothing broken. Just a little banged up on my right side. Little Red is pretty banged up, too. However, we will both recover in no time.
Here's the plan for today:
STAY FOCUSED. DON'T FOOL AROUND JUST BECAUSE I AM OUT!
1. Mr. Barton will be in today to show you how to prepare your stories for SWAY, which is the format we will use for our Humans of AISJ. It's perfect. YOU WILL LOVE IT AND BE PROUD TO BE A PART OF IT.
2. ONLY those of you who are DONE-DONE should give him your stories. I am still editing first drafts and DONISH
3. Those of you who need to edit, make sure you get help. The students who are DONE-DONE can help you. YOU AND THEY MUST READ THE STORIES ALOUD.
4. Those of you who are DONE-DONE and don't have anyone to help, you will begin to work on POETRY. The packets are on desk in front of my desk. It was not bound very well, so you might have to take out the little doodad and staple the pages together. The first few lessons should be a piece of cake for you - it's basic stuff. You should annotate for understanding. You may work in pairs as there are some exercises that require a combined effort. Read every word as there are explanations, examples, and directions for the practice exercises.
If you have questions, email me. I'm not going anywhere.
