Housekeeping: 

- Book talks are due before the break.  This is what we have done so far: hook, background, listed possible points, and learned about context.  Students should be re-reading their novels and selecting their points.  By "points", I mean they should be deciding "reasons for reading the novel"

- I have added a new Topic on the GC called "QUIZLET".  This is a place where I will add links to electronic flashcards to practice our current topics of study.  I posted a bevy of quizlets this weekend, and they serve as an excellent way to review what we're studying when you have a few minutes.  Currently there are French, History, and Math links.

- Grade 8 Parents: a list of all high school open house events can be found here.   **** AURORA HIGH SCHOOL OPEN HOUSE DATE CHANGE: Wednesday, December 11, 6-8 p.m.
