April 15 class assignments

Hi class,

Time to get back to our classwork. Hope you all had great weeks off for your break.

Here is the rest of your writing assignment due on Wednesday, April 14 10 a.m. In class, you were given assignment of writing a character sketch of a hitch-hiker picked up on a rainy day. Your essay should be at least 5 paragraphs but no longer than two pages. It must be double-spaced, using 12-point type (Times Roman or like font), with 1-inch margins. At the top of the page, you must have a header with your name, date and name of assignment: character sketch. Anything filed after 10 a.m. will lose the two points for being on time.

Journals are due at the beginning of class on April 15.

Here are your vocabulary words for this week. You will be tested on them on Thursday, 15th. Write sentences for 10 words that you select from the list.

despondent
forfeit
jaunt
knotty
lobbyist
malady
nonchalance
orthodox
palatable
quaff
renovation
savant
therapeutic
vignette
zealot

That's it. I'll see you all on Thursday.
