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.

4/6

Happy Monday, Juniors!

I have posted a brief survey regarding the Great Gatsby on Google Classroom that I'd like you to complete by tomorrow.  It is not graded so don't panic if you do yours late, but I really need to see student responses from all of you this week before we go "live" with our distance learning next week.  It's a good opportunity to work out any hitches we might have with the technology.  Speaking of, I have not done a lot of work with Google Forms yet, so someone please be nice and email me if I messed up the technology and I will do a "take two" attempt.

Google Classroom is going to become the main way of conveying information to you, so please make sure that you have notifications "on" so that you know when a new assignment or material is posted.  For a while, I will continue to post on my blog, but we may end up transitioning away from that entirely in an attempt to streamline the number of places you have to check for your work.

Looking forward to getting back to our learning!

4/1 Updates and Gastby Post

You should have received a long email to your student email account explaining the next steps for our learning.

Your main assignment for now is to do a post for Gatsby Chapter 4 in the discussion tab on Turnitin.  I will send you an email and post here when there are new discussion topics available for you to comment on.

We will be working on Gatsby for the next few days as we wait for more information from the AP people about what our AP Lang exam will look like.
