More information will be given to the sixteen students who were selected to be interviewed for Macy's. I will talk with them, separately.

Due to the circumstances with "virtual instruction", it is imperative that all of you try to be ON TIME for the meetings. As always, the meetings are recorded, just in case you are not available to make the session. Please make every effort to be on the zooms and BE ON TIME.

There will be an "Anne Frank" test in the next couple of weeks, so please pay attention during the scheduled zoom meetings. Ask questions!

1. abnormal    6. onslaught
2. capsize       7. ordain
3. decrease     8. outstrip
4. eject           9. quench
5. nub           10. swerve
 I will discuss the procedure of emailing me the quizzes for Friday's quiz.

Tuesday-Thursday: Study for the vocabulary quiz on Friday. (List 18 from Unit #8)

Friday: ( zoom meeting begins at 10:30) I will dictate the words to you in a particular order during the zoom meeting. You will, then, write your sentences as we do on the classroom and e-mail me the quiz.
You can, either,  take a photo of your paper, or, send me a word document as an attachment to me to my email address: dlr48@aol.com...IF I DO NOT GET IT BY THE END OF THE DAY, IT WILL BE A ZERO.
REMEMBER... DO NOT SEND A GOOGLE DOCS.  It MUST be a "word" document or something similar. Most of you had no trouble with sending me the previous emails. Those of you who DID have a problem the first time, PLEASE make sure you do it the correct way, this time. 

Weekly Plans for April 6-10, 2020

Obviously, because this week is only two days, we will meet on Monday's zoom and begin our discussion on The Diary of Anne Frank. I will, also, announce the sixteen (16) students who were selected to be interviewed by me for the Macy's project. We will discuss this further after the names have been announced.
Wednesday begins "Spring and Passover  Break". Therefore, use the time off to enjoy the holiday and get a perspective on the previous weeks and the weeks to come. Happy Passover to everyone. Under the circumstances, I am confident that this Passover and your "virtual seders" will never be forgotten.

Monday: Zoom meeting to discuss the Diary of Anne Frank and announce the sixteen (16) students who were selected for the Macy's project.

If you have any concerns or questions during the "break", please do not hesitate to get in touch with me. Remember... I am ALWAYS here for you. SEE YOU ON, MONDAY APRIL 20TH
