As we go through Fahrenheit 451, make sure you are doing your reading and participating in discussions-otherwise there will be another pop quiz! This week we will be spending time everyday go over what we read for the pervious night's homework. If you have any questions, make a note in your book and we can talk about it in class. Some things to note about this week:

• Flash cards are due Wednesday 
• Reading guide (which you will receive Monday) is due Thursday
• Vocabulary Test on Friday
• Fahrenheit 451 Part One test Friday

Quarter grades are due in three weeks. Make sure your time and effort matches the grade you want to see.
