Due to the "quirks" of the testing system, our time was severely limited this week other than Monday.  Continue to read LOF and I will continue to post guiding questions.  It would be beneficial to set up some kind of discussion forum regarding the questions as we simply will not have the time to address them in class to the degree I would like.  The LOF mid-way assessment will be posted on G-Class later today along with instructions.  The Problem With the Problem of Evil will be in discussion for Monday, or possibly Friday depending on assessment time needed.  Below you will find the words for our final Wordwright.  We will take it on Tuesday, April 12.  Your next vocabulary list is also below.  This will remain as scheduled for the block days next week.  LOF final will be pushed to the week of April 18-22 (not sure on which day yet) due to next Friday being a no-school day.  Fast Food Nation will be distributed in the next week.
