Important Note to Students

The HAMLIT assignment page is a convenience but not something to be dependent on. When possible, homework and reading assignments will be posted here, but you are expected to complete all assignments that are announced in class on time, regardless of whether they are posted online. If you are absent, or do not remember if there is an assignment, you will need to contact another member of class to verify what the assignment is. Neither I nor the site are responsible for your failure to complete this responsibility.

Please think about what group and what novel you are interested in working with for your novel project. The powerpoint from class is available here.

For tomorrow please print and bring this document.

Our SBAC multiple choice practice is a little longer than I thought and will be better due on Monday. Please go to this link

Then, click on sign in. Don't worry about the other login in information. It will probably say "guest."

Then select "grade 11".

Then select G11 ELA practice.

This should cue up a practice test. You will not be given "correct" or "incorrect" answers, but please use this as an opportunity to familiarize yourself with what the multiple choice/response test will be like.
