Due on Thursday, 12/15/16
1) You will turn in your thankfulness essay packet on Thursday. Please make sure you have all four drafts, stapled together, with all the red copies and printed Markup copies included. Your lovely printed D4 draft, in second person, will be on top. You will not have a single-spaced final draft for this essay.

2) If you took home your second-person D4 draft (to continue working on it at home before Thursday), don't forget to bring it back!
3) I have put the favorite season essays on the Student Writing Samples site. Please visit there and make sure yours is published there. If you do not see it, please send it to my regular email as an attachment (your single-spaced, final draft copy). NOTE: I have sent an email to those of you whom this applies to.
4) Continue to read in The Extraordinary, Ordinary Life of Mark Rodriguez. You will need to have read all of Part I (pp. 13-49) by the time we return from Christmas Break on January 3. You may read at your own pace over the next few days and weeks, but you should have read up to p. 50 by the time we return.
NOTE: You are fine to continue reading past page 50. In fact, if you were to take advantage of the break to finish reading the book, you may save yourself some time when your homework workload is heavier next semester. But I'll leave that up to you.

Also, daily:
+ Read your (approved) Reading Log book for pleasure, aiming for at least 30 minutes daily. Mark the number of minutes on your Reading Log (in multiples of five, rounded down) as you go along.
+ Write in your Gratitude Journal, aiming for three things but listing at least one thing you are thankful for daily. When you have done so, place a check mark in the top corner of your Reading Log calendar for that day.
The December Reading Log is due, signed by a parent, on Tuesday, 1/3/17.
