Gatsby Chapter 3 & Other Info

College fair is this Wednesday.  Remember that you must arrive at 8:30 on Wednesday to make the bus to the convention center.  Permission slips, from both parents and 2nd & 3rd period teachers, must be turned in by Tuesday.  If you do not have a permission slip you will stay at school and work on Gatsby or independent reading.  If you are attending please fill out this pre registration info.  If you do not do it now you will have to wait in line to fill one out at the event when we arrive.  The link also contains a list of the over 300 colleges that will be at the fair.

On Friday we will have a presentation from MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) at 9am in Room G101. Meet here in class and we will walk over together.  If you arrive late go straight to G101.  There will be a sign on the door to remind you.

For those of you looking to boost your SAT or ACT scores, here are 7 apps to build your vocabulary.  These apps for your phone are a good way to practice vocab when you have a minute.  Maybe during commercials while you are watching TV or just set aside 10 minutes everyday to work on vocab.

Your setting analysis of the Great Gatsby is due on Friday.  Please ask me if you have any questions.  Look at the template for help getting started on your writing.

You have a quiz on Chapter 3 today.  Afterwards we will have a discussion on what we read, themes we see, and predictions for the future.  You will have a quiz on Chapter 4 next Monday (4/28).

Your history assignment New Deal Affects Many Groups & Culture in the 1930's is due on Wednesday (4/23)
