Today's agenda

• Newspaper articles -- Read and summarize two on your own. If this is your first night attending, one of your two articles needs to be the main, front page story.
• Commonly Confused Words worksheet
• Journal Prompt -- Thoroughly respond to the prompt in complete sentences: 
• "What function or role do your parents play in your life? Who or what has replaced your parents over the years?"
• Read and discuss Ray Bradbury's short story "The Veldt."
• Compass Odyssey (or Vocabulary Practice if you can't log in to Compass. If you work on vocab, print out your test results page, write your name at the top, and give it to your teacher.)
