Hey there, guys– it was good to see you today. I know it was a rough first day back; finding the rhythm after a week off is always difficult, and I know today was especially challenging, given the loss in our community. I do appreciate your kindness, understanding, and willingness to buckle down and work today. We’ll try our best to get things as close to normal as we can, as soon as we can. Remember, if you need any assistance or want to talk over the next several days or weeks (or beyond), please feel free to talk to any teacher or staff member, and we’ll do our very best to help in whatever way we can. Keep an eye out for each other over the next few days, okay? We all process grief and loss at our own pace.
As to tonight’s homework– remember that you have a reading quiz over the Unit Three material tomorrow during the first thirty minutes of class, and your Unit Three vocabulary is due at the same time. If you have misplaced your vocabulary list, you can download another copy on the Unit Three resource page.
And if you are interested in reading parts of The Tale of Genji (which we discussed in class today), you can find an abridged version of the first seventeen chapters here.
