Period 1: We discussed Tolstoy's quote, "Seize the moments of happiness, love and be loved! That is the only reality in the world, all else is folly." We then began reading and annotating "God Sees the Truth but Waits" by Tolstoy. The hw assignment is to complete reading the story and to also work on COrnell notes books and notes are due on the 17th.
Period 2, 7, 8: Today we spent the period discussing why people change. This is how we began the short story unit. Tomorrow in class students will be asked to answer the question: Based on the short stories we read in class, why do people change? Use evidence from the stories to support your answer to the question. In your answer, you will be expected to provide the title and author of each short story and relevant details that support your opinion.
Also students were reminded that Cornell notes and IR books are due by Nov 17.
