  9. AND WAT IS THE DRAFT!!! elizabeth it is just a vocab test... well atleast for us!!!

  10. you need to have a 'very' basic understanding of the story. 85% is vocabulary. There are about 5 questions on content...

    e.g. What was the name of the boat?
    Who was the captain?
    What is a dirk?

    If you listened in class, then these 5 questions are 'very' straightforward and easy to answer.

    Flynn, you can get your textbook tomorrow

    Paige, We will go over the descriptive piece in class tomorrow. hope you're feeelng better.

    synonyms is a good way to study Abigail. Do what you need to learn the words
