(Note: Due to the two hour delay yesterday, period 3 missed class with me. They'll be a day behind period 7 for a while.)
Classes read an excerpt from the novel "Letters From Rifka," a story about a young girl's journey from Russia to America, in the litereature book. This part describes an experience on Ellis Island. Summaries were written in the text-response section of their notebooks every second page.
Vocab definitons due tomorrow. Some students do owe work... especially the essay rewrites from 7th period.
