The balance of our week focused on guidelines for response or reaction essays and students began rewrites of an earlier reading, "Mangoes, Memories and Motorcycles," by Sona Pai. Pai's piece was included in the book, Best Food Writing 2008. Using a sheet I had worked up for class, and in preparation for their rewrites, we used the guidelines and more fully responded to Monday's essay. Rewritten essays due on Monday, the 15th.

- Good Morning to all and to all a Good Morning. My name is Shannon Stone. I am 26 and will be celebrating another year older on Monday, March 29th. I’m currently attending Kenmare High School to obtain my high school diploma. I’ve been here since January 2009 and I’m hoping to graduate this June. I am trying to further my education so I can eventually have a stable career and future for my son and me. I have a six-year-old named Max, who is now in kindergarten and will attend first grade in September. I was originally suppose to graduate from Hoboken High School in 2001, but decided at the age of eighteen not to attend school and anymore. Seven years later I realized that I will not get anywhere without furthering my education. When I first started Kenmare, I simply wanted a High School Diploma. But as time passed, I realized I need and want more out of life, so I will also attend college to become an ultrasound technician. In my spare time, I’m busy devoting my attention to my son and homework. I also enjoy watching a good movie. For now, my main focus will be on school for the next few years.
