2. There will be a quiz on the vocabulary from this unit (blue handouts) on Wednesday. We will go over any unfamiliar terms today and tomorrow. If you have lost your handouts, they are available on Office 365/content library/visual literacy terms & devices. I have also pasted it below.

3. You should be able to tell me the name of the novel you are reading for the Term 4 assignment by now. If you want a break from writing about your "Bad Ad", you could read your novel and work some more on setting-up your blog for the novel assignment.
