Thursday, December 19 last day for "Rainy River"




How many draft-age American males do official statistics record as immigrants to Canada? 
Canada’s Immigration Statistics show that about 16,000 American males aged 19-25 formally immigrated to Canada in the period 1966-1972

By 1977 Carter pardoned by some source estimates a total of 11,000 American offenders at large, the “overwhelming majority” in exile.


There is an ELA review class after school today in room 237. 
In class: you are finishing up the graphic organizer for Tim O'Brien's "On the Rainy River." Please keep in mind the following: 

The goal is to use complete sentences into which you have woven textual evidence- which, of course you have set off with quotation marks- into your sentences. Remember that the material must be able to stand independently.  AVOID IT whenever possible; find another noun.  
Strategy: 1. read the questions 2. read the assigned text. 3. reread and find the evidence that supports your response. 4. check for capitalization, spelling, grammar and punctuation.  Remember that this is equivalent to two writing grades. Due today at the end of class today or you may come and finish at the review session in 237.
