Oh, I just had to post this for Jessica.  The Center for Disease Control posted what to do in case of a zombie attack.  Too funny.

Farewell!

We hugged Erica goodbye today, as this was her last meeting before graduation.  She wrote a sweet poem to Lit Club, expressing how much she wished she had joined earlier.  Thanks for the sweet thoughts, Erica.  We wish you well in all that you encounter. 

We also decided that we will read the novel, Nevermore, over the summer.  This is not to be confused with the other novel that Holly rejects, Evermore

Finally, we will trade notebooks next week. Hopefully, one of you comes up with a good storyboard or screenplay that we can use to make a wicked video that mashes up two contrasting stories or figures.

Thursday Meeting!

We should have some food at our next meeting, so that we can say a proper farewell to Erica.  I will bring some punch, and make some sort of dessert.  Write below or see me to indicate what you can do.  I hope you all can come, even those of you in track!

Next Meeting

We will meet on Thursday, April 7 right after school this week to discuss I Am Number Four and share anything you've written.  The movie, I Am Number Four, is not going to work this week.  We will have to wait for it to go to MJR Allen Park.  In the meantime, I need you to let me know if there is a better day of the week to meet.  Tuesdays are no good for me, but otherwise I can work with you.

Panera Bread

We had a lovely visit at Panera, discussing I Am Number Four and other books.  I'll be adding those photos to the mixbook, and must say it was very nice chatting with everyone about literature.

Skinny Pants

Ha!
You disavow Shakespeare
This education
Your growth
My work
Then you wear pants so snug
You look like the bard himself.

For those of you who turned in permission slips, this is just a reminder.

Don't worry about getting to the halfway point in the book.  The consensus seems to be that everybody started, but didn't quite reach the middle.
