Videos from this week, in case you missed it!

Here's the video and PowerPoint from Tuesday, if you missed it.  Fill out your notes sheet as you view it.  (You'll probably have to view it more than once, and pause it, too, in order to get all the information down!)

Tuesday's PowerPoint


Here's the PowerPoint and video link from Wednesday.  Only watch the first 4 minutes.  We'll watch the rest later.  It's about chunking!

80's Day- The best day of the year!

1988

 If you need any ideas for what to wear tomorrow on 80's day, take a few pointers from your totally rad English teacher!  Hairspray, curling irons, and blow dryers are the way to go!  No flat irons allowed! 

1989

1989

Check out these stirrup pants!  (No, this isn't me!)

 Boys, make sure you use a lot of hair product, too!  Gel and hairspray! 

Preppy looks with popped collars are the way to go!  

 Mullets were all the rage in the 80's!

Here's a blog dedicated to the decade.  Maybe you can catch a few pointers!

Here's a commercial to show you how to get an 80's eye!

Summer Reading

Welcome back!  I hope you had the summer of your dreams!  Did you sleep in?  Did you go on a vacation? Did you read any books?  What?  Read?  Yes!  I'd like to get to know you a bit, so in the comments below, tell me about your summer.  Make sure you mention one book, article, or even a menu you read (please tell me you read something!)  Give me a short summary of whatever it was and tell me if you liked it... or not...
