English 10 (A block)
Today we completed a quiz for chapter 5 and 6. We took a close look at the seven commandments, and made a few of our own! Based on these commandments, we did some creative writing - a day in the life at SLSS with some new commandments.

Our Commandments - keep in mind, these are not the rules of our classroom, only fictional rules for our activity:

1. Students can come to school whenever.
2. No students shall do drugs.
3. All students can eat in class.
4. No students shall do homework.
5. All students shall sleep in class.
6. All students shall have care and respect.
7. No students shall cheat on tests or exams.

Homework
Complete your narrative if you haven't completed it yet. We'll be using these during tomorrow's class.

Today we read the La Guin's "The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas". This will help to launch us into some creative writing. After reading and discussing the short story, we used it as a prompt for a creative writing piece. This may be in the form of a poem or a short story. Due Monday.

LINK: The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas

Homework
Work on your creative response to "The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas"

We read up to Act V scene ii of Romeo & Juliet. We also formed our groups for our scenes to film. You'll have two weekends for this - and we should be able to start your videos on March 7.
