Congratulations on a great end to 2014. You have accomplished much: Three major works; open-response exercises, long writing, class presentations, and reasoned several objective assessments.
In the last few days of Term II (when you return from vacation), I will discuss sentence structure and types, develop vocabulary units outside of the texts we have studied, and begin our fourth major work of the year.
Our first work back from vacation will bring us to the essay you wrote about O'Neill's drama. I am looking forward to reading your essays this holiday week and sharing comments with you. Do expect to write a reflection about your essay when you return and to complete a Communication rubric for the paper.
