8th week's Lessons 10/22 - 10/26 - 2007

We are now into Fahrenheit 451; you may read it in class during S.S.R. time. Also you may make up reading time from last week. Make sure your spiral notebook is in order, because we will grade it after we have the Science Fiction notes in it.

For extra credit you can bring something off the list for "Box of Love".
It is a Canning Hunger project to provide holiday dinners to needy families throughout the Los Angeles area during the holiday season.
