Period 4
Class began a little noisy (so it was just like every other day).
As people calmed down and Nicolette got kicked out, we began our discussion of Great Gatsby. I started things off with question number four, doing an okay job, and Mr. Eldridge finishing where I stopped. We were asked to identify why the [...]

Today was interesting, now that AP testing is over.

Then Eldridge drew a [...]
