NO VOCAB QUIZ ON MONDAY

I realize that I did not distribute a vocabulary list on Thursday for the quiz on Monday. The quiz will now be postponed until Tuesday and a vocabulary list will be available on Monday in class. Students wishing to take the quiz on Monday may do so during the lunch break.

Also, here is the second part of the film. IF you were not able to complete the second part of the assignment, do not worry. However, you are welcome to watch this section and answer the questions for extra practice.
