Good morning, A Track English 11 Team. Today, you can finish up your writing piece if you hadn't done that on Friday (it is described in the "assignments" section in Teams from Friday), and then read for the remaining class time. We will start book conferences next week, so it should be obvious by then that you have spent a couple of hours reading your book. See you tomorrow!

To bounce off of the memoir we read yesterday, write a paragraph or two ( or more, if you want to!) on the subject " The Hardest Thing I ever did." If that is too hard to write about, that's OK; just describe a challenge you faced at some point, and how you dealt with it. It could be anything from learning to tie your shoes, to the day you lost your mask on the bus and didn't know what to do. The purpose of this assignment is for me to get an idea of your writing style. I will be looking ONLY for an introduction sentence that describes the challenge, several details (at least 4-5, but add all you can), and a sentence that describes what you learned from your experience at the end. Do your best with punctuation and spelling, but don't worry about it. I just want to hear your writing voice; you will get top marks if you have it done all that I asked for in the previous sentence, and have it turned in by class tomorrow. You can type it on your device, then hit the "Turn in" button in Teams, or write it by hand, and bring it tomorrow. If you are not turning it in here, please let me know that in the "posts" section.

To prepare to read "The Sniper" on Monday, let's ramp up our knowledge of " The Troubles," which was basically a civil war in Ireland. On the link below, click through at least three sections of the BBC Quick Guide, and send back one comment on the information you found, and one question that you are wondering about.
Here is the link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/hi/pop_ups/quick_guides/04/uk_norther...
