1. Journals will still be accepted tomorrow as will literature circle role sheets because you did not have the chance to meet in your groups.  Tomorrow, we may bypass journal writing so that you can have productive literature circle group meetings.
2. Your second drafts of your "Are Families Dangerous Essay?" Synthesis Essays are due on Monday. You should be re-reading, adding additional evidence from the texts we have read, and including transitional words and phrases to increase precision and clarity. Rubric will be presented in class tomorrow!
