Happy Friday, Roadrunner Families!

I hope this Halloween Eve finds you all happy and healthy! We have a rare blue moon tomorrow night, so make sure to check it out!

We had to back peddle a bit this week and return to working on our Cultural Fair Annotated Bibliographies. Many students were falling behind, so a revisit and refocus were necessary in order for us to be successful. Students have until 8am Sunday to get this assignment turned in and I know they can do it! Please encourage them to try their hardest. Here are a few other things we’ve been working on…

We are continuing our unit on The Crucible and will beginning reading next week. We did a quick recap of Puritanism late last week and wrapped it up at the start of this week.
