This is the last week of classes before Christmas, so make sure everything is wrapped up. The Pigman's diary is due in at the end of today's class. We have a busy week as we will be doing the interior monologue and hopefully get the article done as well.
You should have your responses back this week.
The Pigman reading dates:
chapters 1- 5 November 21 chapters 10 & 11 December 2
chapter 6 November 22 chapters 12 & 13 December 5
chapters 7 & 8 November 29 chapters 14 & 15 December 8
chapter 9 November 30 test December 9
Reading mark will be based on: the test, chapter readings (observations in class through discussions) and responses to connected readings.
Remember to keep a diary for the Pigman as you are reading to get his perspective on important events and other characters. Let the readers really get to know the Pigman's feelings and character.

The sec. 3 class is also doing the Advanced 5 program. Because the class is much smaller than the sec.1 & 2 class, we are advancing more quickly and students are now working at all 5t stations: read to self, read & converse, works with words, writing and works with media. We too are still building up stamina, slowly increasing student's independence.
