    (Angry) Mew Zoey - Glad you're feeling better! You can download 'Gr 8 - Pride and Prejudice Vocab 1-20 to get the vocabulary. See you tomorrow!

    Mrs. Corpron, will your 7th grade English class have any homework due Friday... i will be on the New York trip and I want to turn it in early so i don't have to worry about it over the weekend

    Brady said...

    Hey Mrs. C Its not Letting me upload the Iliad paper what do i do It keeps saying invalid upload or something

    Mrs. Corpron said...

    Anonymous - It IS good.

    BOMBB - I don't have a book with me, so I'm sorry I can't help you out. Do the best you can, and we'll talk about it tomorrow.

    Emma - Yes, you'll have homework due Friday, and it will probably be study questions. I'll try (not promise, but try) to put a set together for you before you go.

    Mrs. Corpron said...

    Brady - Click the 'Gr 9 - Iliad chronology' link on the blog, which brings you to mediafire.com. In the blue bar in the top left-hand corner of the page, it says 'You requested: The Iliad.doc (12.86 MB).' Underneath that is a yellow box with a thin orange border. Inside the yellow box is a link that says 'Click here to start download..' Click on that link to start the download. It works fine:)

    Mrs. Corpron said...

    Brady - You want to download, not upload.

    brady said...

    i tryed that still not working

    BOMBB said...

    Dang

    Mrs. Corpron- I have the same problem as James does. I now just realized how far behind I was in the time line. I thought I was going to have more than a day to do that make up work. I'm behind seven pages from completion. Could I do about four pages as homework instead?

    Andee the SUPERHERO said...

    Mrs. Corpron- I realized that I don't have enough pictures to do most of it, and I can't print that many pictures. I will get as much done as I possibly can from the whole thing.

    Emma!!! =:) said...

    thx!! :)
