Thurber and Family

Hey seniors:

Tonight's topic is Thurber's potrayal of family, and here's your question:
How does Thurber show us not only how the idea of “family” is unique but is also universal? How does his family connect to yours?
You can respond to the question as well as respond to others. We'll discuss further in class.

Welcome IB seniors!

We'll be utilizing this space for discussions realating to our texts, topics, assessments and other items of note for IB English 2. Feel free to collaborate with your fellow Mira Loma students if a particular topic interests you wether you're assigned to lead, create or take part a discussion or not. There's a lot we can learn from earch other, and hopefully this will be the place to begin, or further, discussion relating to IB English. If you need a more personal response, you can always e-mail me at kcarmona@sanjuan.edu.
Another note, since I have a passion for independent film and creative writing (particularly experimental narrative), I will also post opportunities for you to indulge in these mediums outside the classroom.
Here's to a great year!
