Weekend Work!

Hi everyone!  It was a great week at TDA! 

This weekend, there is no formal homework, but I would like for everyone to e-mail me a final copy of the YAN book at mrivner@davisacademy.org.

I have e-mailed instructions for the Works Cited page and the glossary.  (Those can be typed and turned in by Wednesday, April 6)

Have a wonderful weekend, and I will see some of you on Sunday!
