I'm a high school teacher, so I'm curious. What English class is this? Our seniors are stressing over the AP tests that start this week and like Alpinerabbit, they are finishing lengthy term papers.

You obviously don't have any dogs or cats running round unsupervised in your house!

I was just going to ask about dogs and cats. Looks like a fun project, and will be even more fun years hence.

We now have an area consumed that is larger than the house we lived in when she was born!
Barb, I know what you mean. For two years, I lived in 8x10 - with a roommate! The furniture on one wall was 24 inches deep, the bunk beds were 3 feet wide...so we had a strip of floor space that was basically 5x10!Last edited by Mr. Bloom; 05-03-2009 at 08:31 PM.

It's an expository writing class, not literature. Originally Posted by uforgot

floor space
Now you have a very good idea as to how large her dorm room will have to be! I'm sure her excellent organizational skills, self-discipline, and desire for success will follow her to college. (Good thinking, Silver daughter! No tiny, cramped room for you as you earn your Bachelor's!)
My smallest dorm room (at Indiana University Bloomington) was about 8 x 10 IF even that. I still have bruises on my elbows.
Four room suite, coming up!

As long as she understands how to write a formal essay with foot notes or end notes plus an opening thesis/statement of purpose paragraph and supporting arguments, by the time she gets to college. Originally Posted by Mr. Silver

I recall in my final year of high school English, we were forbidden to use illustrations in our papers. We had to learn to express the visual images or imagery completely in words. But family history is different except your daughter doesn't have to describe the personalities of her family members if she doesn't feel like it. Now you're safe.
