Happy Wednesday!

Remember – for the next two weeks (or until we get done with this unit), we are working on Carpe Diem stuff.

Gradespeed is not working yet, and we have no idea WHEN it will be available for us to use. So far, these are the grades in my class:

• Character Sheet
• Creative Coloring Response
• Bucket List Pre-Writing
• Bucket List
• Lingerie: One Word
• Carpe Diem Translation
• To the Virgins Discussion Board (do 4 topics)

Now, on to what we did in class today!

In the Carpe Diem section, click on the Seize the Day folder. Read the story for Lingerie and follow the directions. Pretty easy.

We watched Mr. Keating creep his students out in a clip From Dead Poets Society and then we did the Carpe Diem Translation Tower.

You will read the four sentences, and then translate each sentence in your own thought. Add some clip art. Riley explained what it mean to strain the wine and showed a few clips from this guy making a gross looking banana wine. She also serenaded the class to Doris Day’s song Que Sera Sera.

Make sure you have a clip art! You may need to resize the font. Then cut thusly:

And then fold/glue.

Make sure your name is on the foldable and leave it on my desk. Once I gre

In To The Virgins Discussion Board, we answered the required question: What Age is Best in Life” before we printed “To the Virgins” and “Coy Mistress” to OneNote.

We then read To The Virgins, To Make Much of Time. Make sure that you get the notes here:

If you want, ask me why I find this poem so offensive.

We also talked about peaking in high school. If you peak in high school, then the rest of your life will be pretty depressing.

Lastly, we went back to the To The Virgins Discussion board to answer three more questions. YOUR CHOICE. Make sure you that you have four completed so you can get full credit. If you do MORE than four questions, you are earn extra points!
