How wonderful to see and work with Rachel again this year! We are both excited to work on American History and English together again this year well in advance of the lacrosse season that Rachel shared begins in the spring. Today we began to work on an assigned essay with the intent to compare/contrast and synthesize Rachel's two assigned summer reading novels. Rachel already began the essay herself. We revised, reviewed (when needed) what Rachel has written thus far. The essay is due on Friday. Rachel got off to a a somewhat strong start. The assignment is complex and she will benefit from assistance. Rachel would like to meet to work on it after school one more time on Thursday, 8/25/22, which is just fine with me. Rachel remains a hard worker with a very strong work ethic!
