Welcome to Week 13!

Hi All,

It's the beginning of our third month, and the start of the second half of the semester.  Except, when you think about it, the second half is quicker than the first half. Between Veteran's Day this week, Thanksgiving at the end of the month, and all of the usual pre-holiday/finals excitement, it's going to go by faster than you think.

With that in mind, here is a preview of the rest of our semester. 

• We will continue writing in our journals - your next post of three favorite entries is due by 5:00 p.m. Pacific time this Tuesday, November 10. 
•  We will finish Literature Analysis #1 and post it on our blogs by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, November 20.
  
• We will continue reading and writing about Fahrenheit 451. Please keep up with the reading schedule as it's posted on the course blog. If we get this right, we will finish the book around Thanksgiving.
• We will create résumés and cover letters that you can use for holiday employment, scholarship applications, and any other opportunities you pursue in the future.

Thanks to all the parents who visited during the evening Zoom hangouts over the last two weeks - if your parents ever want to connect, please feel free to share my calendar link with them too.

As always, please check the Work Product page, please keep up with the course blog this week, and please email or Zoom if you have any questions or need any help.

Onward.

Dr. Preston
