Thursday, Sept. 30th - Meet the Netbook Lab!

No silent reading today.

The Netbook Lab!

- Meet the babies! Each one is delicate and easily broken. They are little babies who need to be loved and treated with TLC.

- Clear your desk. The only thing you need is your rough copy of the short story you have begun working on.

- Listen to Ms. Gerome's instructions about signing out the netbook.

- Playing around with the webcam, and checking FB, and hotmail, etc... is totally not going to be okay. I'll take the netbook away and ask you to watch someone else work on theirs. Ya. I'm grumpy like that.

Daily English 11 - Our starting place...

I keep our daily notes and assignments here. Follow along as I tour you through some of what we'll be working with online this semester.
