Junior High First Grade:
We're reading a short poem called "An Easy Decision" by Kenneth Patchen, and we're going to talk about interesting people and what makes people interesting. We're also talking about the content of poems, specifically the choice of animals in the poem "An Easy Decision."
Junior High Second Grade:
We're reading "When I heard the Learn'd Astronomer" by Walt Whitman, and we're going to have a class discussion about whether it's better to enjoy art, music and literature only with our senses, or whether it's better to learn it in a more scientific way. We're also talking about work usage in poetry.
Junior High School Third Grade:
We're reading "Acquainted with the Night" by Robert Frost and we're talking about walking at night. We're also talking about tone in poetry.

We're going to be talking about mustaches. We're also possibly going to have a preview of some materials I'm preparing for the new high school curriculum.
High School Second Grade
We're going to talk about the course and what to expect, and changes in the course (since this Wednesday will be my first chance to see them this term).
High School 8th Period
We're going to try to finish the last things given to us by the Yumeji Art Museum project, and then talk about test-taking skills.
