SENIORS: Illustrations are due TODAY!  On Monday, be prepared to put your text side-by-side with your illustrations and work on turning everything into final draft form.

 SOPHOMORES: Today we went over more CAHSEE writing strategies, wrote a final book review for your independent reading book in Goodreads, and finished the final drafts of the essays for War and  The Bracelet.  
        Here's something easy you can do over the weekend to help you with the writing portion of the CAHSEE: think of 3 historical people, 3 people that you know, 3 historical events, and 3 inventions.  Some of you might go into "brain freeze" during the test; so if you have some ideas in your head when you walk in the door, you'll be able to write instead of going into a panic.
