Please ensure that your plot diagram and foreshadowing worksheets are complete and in your binder for or next class.  Also, study your vocabulary words for our quiz on Monday (wholesomeness, amiably, hospitable, presumptuous, enthralled, apathy, liability, oppressive, reverberated, and compensation).  Finally, write a paragraph describing your first few days in high school.  Some ideas to consider before you begin writing:  your first impressions or things you have found hard to get used to.  You might also want to consider the different sights, smells, sounds, tastes or tactile experiences (what you have physically felt) at your new school
