HW: The Outsiders Ch. 1

The bell for second period rang and in strolled my first eighth grade SAS English class. It was a full house but everyone found their seats and as students wrote the agenda, I signed program cards. I passed out the course outlines and took roll. Lots of familiar faces in this class. :)

A couple of students (I think it was Owen) brought up the Oregon game on Saturday and I got a little distracted but we were quickly back on track, reading the course outline about what students can expect in Ms. Nakada's class (lots of reading and writing). I also went over homework (read 20 pages a night, people) and book projects. We talked briefly about NaNoWriMo and students got a little stressed out but I promise, it will be a challenge and a LOT of fun.

We then went over supplies (paper, pens, notebook for class notes, notebook for reading journals). Donate stuff! It will help keep our class nice!

I passed out copies of The Outsiders and reminded students to read the first chapter tonight on during ET. 

We then started our blog and in Darian came up with The Hatcher Blog :). So there we have it! Our first blog of the school year...
