Hi! Does anyone know what M. O'brien e-mail is?

Reason #2 - comment before April 16

They don't read books -- and don't want to, either

"It's a new attitude, this brazen disregard of books and reading. Earlier generations resented homework assignments, of course, and only a small segment of each dove into the intellectual currents of the time, but no generation trumpeted aliteracy ... as a valid behavior of their peers.''

Homework

Health: Quiz tomorrow
Music: Composition project for April 13.
Drama: Dances will be presented on April 13. Be ready!
English: Dumbest generation responses are due before April 12.

Day of Pink is happening on April 13th!

Have a great night!!!

On the Greener Side

 Submissions for On the Greener Side, Volume II are now due. See Mr. Kitz for details.

Ideally, submissions have had a quick check over by you the English teacher. Then they are sent by the student to me as a Microsoft Word attachment in size 12 font, Times New Roman. I am fine with students knowing and using my school e-mail account, david.kitz@ocdsb.ca. No one has abused that privilege. 

Reason #1 - comment before April 12

1. They make excellent "Jaywalking'' targets
Bauerlein writes:

"The ignorance is hard to believe ... It isn't enough to say that these young people are uninterested in world realities. They are actively cut off from them. ... They are encased in more immediate realities that shut out conditions beyond -- friends, work, clothes, cars, pop music, sitcoms, Facebook.''

(you guys are going to love #2 - Mr. O)

This is for the people who don't care what happens on the "other side of the world".
