HW from 5/2/13

Due on 5/7/13:

* Pray for Gloria and her family as they walk through the pain of Ian's death. 

"But I cry to you for help, O Lord; in the morning my prayer comes before you." - Psalm 88:13

* Be prepared for a poetry quiz at any time.

* Scan the two poems I gave you in class (Daffodils and The Tiger) meaning, figure out the rhyme scheme and rhythmic foot.  Come prepared to turn that in on Tuesday. 

* Complete the D1 of your theme storyPrint it out and have three people proofread it for errors (and sign it) by Tuesday, 5/7.  You will bring this signed copy to class on Tuesday.  

* You will then have until Thursday, 5/9, to edit and correct your paper based on their feedback. You will  email your revised draft to me at LauraSitterding@MarkupSync.com before class on Thursday, 5/9 and you will turn in your signed/edited copy in class on Thursday, 5/9.  You will not need to print a revised copy for Thursday, 5/9.

NOTE: Our standard paper parameters are as follows: 12-point Times New Roman or Arial font, 1-inch margins, double-spaced, with 5-space paragraph indentation and no extra lines between paragraphs.  Your final paper must be at least 5 full typewritten pages, but no more than 25 typewritten pages, when you turn it in.  You will add pages at a rate of two pages per homework day until your paper is finished.  Please turn in your D1 (see instructions above) as soon as it is complete if it is complete before the due date.

* Most all of the mystery stories are posted on the website.  If you have time, have fun reading your classmates' endings!

* Be prepared to recite any of your three memory verses at any time (Psalm 141:3, Titus 2:11-14, and Ephesians 4:29-32).  You might choose to review one verse each day so that they stay fresh in your mind. 

ALSO:
* Send me an email indicating that you have carefully read the homework blog and that you understand everything that is to be completed for the next class period.  You will receive extra credit this time if you write your notification email in third person point of view rather than in first person point of view.

* Reading for Reading Log: 30 minutes daily. (May's Reading Log will be due, signed by your parent, on Thursday, May 16.)
