October 31-November 4

Good job on the first part of Fahrenheit 451. The part one scores were high and through our discussions, it seems as though most of the class completed the required reading. The pace at which we will be reading the text is going to become faster, so make sure you are keeping up! Things to note this week:

• There is going to be a study guide given out on Monday. As you do the nightly reading, you will be responsible for completing corresponding section of the study guide. I will check it during SSR everyday. If it is not completed, you will lose significant points. 
• There will be a vocabulary test (as always) this Friday.

As a result of the selfish actions of a member of your class, the tone of this class is going to change until the money is recouped. I will not tolerate the actions shown and you only have your classmate to blame. If anyone has any information on who took the money, please do the right thing and either tell me or pressure the person to return the money so it can be given to children in need.
