Monday, April 20 & Tuesday, April 21: We will be discussing Elie Wiesel's Night these two days. We will be conducting two fishbowl discussions. I will discuss the format of a fishbowl discussion with you on Monday.

Please bring the packet in on Monday.
Wednesday, April 22: In-class writing on Night (20 points)
Thursday, April 23: The thesis paper will be due today. Note the change in the due date. This gives you an extra day to spend revising it. You must hand in a final outline, paper, and works cited page. You will not be given an opportunity to rewrite this paper like you were able to do for your first thesis paper if you earned a C+ or below. Therefore, you will need to really revise and edit it before you hand it in for a grade. I will accept the paper a day late (Friday, April 23) for a penalty. Just a reminder: You must send me your paper via e-mail if you are not in school on Thursday. This must be e-mailed to me first thing in the morning. If not, you must bring it in the next day for the penalty. Below is an interesting video on women's rights:
Thursday, April 23 & Friday, April 24: We will begin All Quiet on the Western Front. These two days will be used for background information on the novel. You will need to read chapter 1-4 for Monday, April 27.
