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.

Welcome back assignments...

I vaguely have this recollection of a thing called school...

Here's what I'd like you to have done when we return:

Due Monday: Huck Finn Vocabulary Assignment. I'm assuming that Mr. Nickel is still planning on you taking your history test on Monday, so I don't know how much time we'll have for English.

Huck Finn Reading: I would like you to try to be through Chapter 33, however, I realize that since we haven't discussed much of the book, it will probably be a while before we discuss that far into the text. I'll ask around in class and see how far people have read and how well we are understanding the text, and then set up a more specific discussion calendar after we return. So, to answer what you probably really want to know, there won't be a reading quiz on Monday asking you questions that come from Chapter 33 only...or any other English reading quiz on Monday.
