Daily Scribe Monday 10/27/2008 – Period 5
Daily Scribe, Monday, 27th of October
Hey 5th Period Peers,
Hope everyone had a good weekend and it wasn’t too filled with homework. It’s unfortunatelly Monday once again, and we have another week of school.
English was pretty chill today.
We started out with the usual worksheet of the day. Today we did an Imagery worksheet, with a passage from the poem “The Waste Land” by T.S. Eliot. We came to the conlclusion that the poem was pretty melonchonly and dark, with the disagreemetn of Jay and his “heavenly” perception of the passage. In the apply section, we were supposed to write 4 lines of poetry to convey a sense of triumph using imagery. Passing from student to student, we came across Michelle Einstein who described a “baby bird flying from the nest”. It was symbolic and histarical at the same time. Michi, you are a chucklemonster. haha.
Finishing up the worksheet, we went over our Deatil 8 worksheet from last week when we had the “interesting” substitute. Ryan apeared to be the only one who thuroughly enjoyed her teaching, but that’s cleche of him.
I have no idea where it started, but all of a sudden the whole class starts talking about the idisms of Mrs. Haas. Things such as her ability to chug an entire botttle of water in the midst of her teachings and phrases such that of “Mother Haas teaches both manners and math”, “Check my arithmatic”, and “Tristen…you’re bugging me” were mentioned and quoted. No idea how the topic of Mother Haas got started, but our class is random like that.
After the 2 papers, we tlaked about the Timed Writing essay on the swamps. The 1st author wrote with a scientific perspective, while the 2nd, with an emtional. We did a good job on this essay Mr. E said, so good job! Pat on the back for everyone!
Lastly, we took The Scarlet Letter quiz for chapters 10-12. The first page didn’t have anything todo with the weekends reading, but the back side had a list of about 8 vocabulary words and 3 questions. If you did the questions on your study guide, I’m sure you’re thankful, becuase they were directly from it!
And that’s pretty much what English was today. Take care now, bye-bye then!

Daily Scribe Monday – Period 4
Well I know I messed this up pretty uglyily. I have no idea how to post something unless I leave it as a reply but anyways…the class started off by 11 people reminding me that I am the scribe. Thank you everyone this wouldn’t have worked without you. We warmed our minds next with lil turts getting eaten by birds. (poor baby turtles… No wonder E Henny goes bird hunting!) Then after seeing Mr. E’s metal bottle I realized that I became thirsty everyday yet never had a reliable container to store the liquid some call water. So i’ve decided to invest in one of those liquid holders. After this point I forgot I was scribe till we started taking the test. SO this point is a little hazy. Anyone call feel free to fill in my blanks. Hey, I’m Just trying to encourage class participation. The zenith of this haziness was nicolette hitting jordan in the face, pretty hard too or so i’ve been told. Then we finished the day with a TSL quiz which i believe i got a 100 percent on till Tricia told me i messed up the metereor, but im not losing my points without a fight! Oh and a correction to Erica-Nicole my name is spelled with an a not an e, but don’t feel bad your not the only person to of done it and like reading my name in messages basically because of my narcissism. Well that’s that. Sorry to anyone who actually wanted to read this poor scribe notes before 11, but thats just how i roll.
Toodles,
TrIsTaN

Tristan, all you had to do was e-mail the scribe notes to mreldridge.
But I like your style better, break down those barriers. Haha.

A few weeks ago, I e-mailed the bedford reader support hotline or whatever because the site would never let me take the quizzes. They said that The Bedford Reader Online isn’t compatible with AOL or something and to try to take the quizzes with Internet Explorer of Firefox (which now works for me). So try these if the site appears to not be working since this has been happenening to lots of people.

I have found AOL to be useless on many occasions. I now just use Firefox if I actually need to use the internet.

Carfi, get off AOL. It’s Internet with training wheels. C’mon and ride with the big boys.
