Please remember that the Cumulative Vocabulary test for units 1-3 is on Wed.
Be sure to be able to use each word in a sentence of your own creation to
earn extra credit points.
Also be sure to finish the puzzle you received in class on Thursday so you
can turn that in to me on Wed. I will be collecting the seven run-on
sentences that were to be written correctly and were assigned last Thursday
tomorrow.

The test on "The Noble Experiment" is on Thursday. Be sure to reread the
story carefully each night, review the Pause and Reflect questions, and study
the vocabulary words on the separate sheet handed out before we read the
story. You may also want to begin the assignment on "courage" that was
handed out in class today. Remember to pick 6 of the 8 people to write about
to defend your opinion on whether or not you consider them to be courageous.
Finally, complete the following vocabulary exercises on pp. 54-55:
#1,4,5,7,8,11,12,17,19 & 20. Then, from the Synonyms and Antonyms section:
#3,5,8,9,11,12,14,15,18, and 20. We will check these exercises tomorrow.
