Welcome

Over February break you are expected to read "Night" by Elie Wiesel. There may be some parts of the novel that you will find disgusting or disturbing, but this is one man's account of being taken to a concentration camp and the horror that he encountered.

You are required to make at least 1 post. A post consists of you answering a question or responding to the answer of a classmate (ex: I agree with Ylanis's comment that ...., but I disagree with her statement that.....). Your posts must reflect thoughtful contemplation and knowledge of the text; in other words, your response must show that you read, understand, and have thought about the text. Therefore, I expect each of your posts to be at least one substantial paragraph. This also means that abbreviations like ppl will not be accepted. Proper capitalization and spelling should also be in use.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. This is a new process for all of us, so I'm sure there will be kinks we will have to work out. Please let me know if you are having trouble posting.

Ms. Foley and Ms. Sitron
