For our MOM: [Pick a spot on the wall. Try to bore a hole through it with your eyes. Breathe.]
JOURNAL TOPIC: If school opened tomorrow, would you and your family trust it to be safe? Why/why not?
-OR-
You can use your journal simply to write about life and your experiences in these unusual, challenging times.
AGENDA:
1. MOM
2. Journal
3. Meeting
4. Post
POST:
In yesterday's reading we discussed Lieutenant Scheisskopf, whose name is German, and means, um, er... why did author Joseph Heller have so much fun with names in this book? What is his tone toward the characters, and what was he trying to tell readers? (title: WHAT'S IN A NAME)
A SPECIAL NOTE TO STUDENTS WHO TOOK THE AP EXAM YESTERDAY:
Hi y'all, CONGRATULATIONS on completing the 2020 AP exam! I hope you felt confident and successful. Thanks to those of you who joined the today's zoom call and shared your experiences. Take the rest of the day off. Tomorrow (Thursday) we will discuss "Surviving With Class," final projects, grades, and course evaluations. If there's time after that we will continue with Catch-22. Needless to say, this has become a very, er, interesting year, and I'm proud of you for persevering.
