Due Tuesday, February 12

Get a good night’s sleep, eat a good breakfast and get ready for ERB’s!

Bring in everyday this week: 1. your independent reading book 2. your packet on The Jungle (see below-due Thursday) 3. #2 pencils.

Tie up any loose ends with sustainability organizations. If someone requested that you email or call them back, do it! If someone gave you a list of links, check them out! As I said, there should not be any person out there who is waiting to hear back from an LREI student and never does–that would be rude and reflect poorly on all of us!

Due Thursday, February 14–Valentine’s Day

Complete the readings and questions in the packet on Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle, one of the most famous muckraking publications of all time.

Click here for the instructions. Click here for the first reading, the excerpt from The Jungle (long!). The second reading (only one double-sided page) is something you have to get from me personally. Do not leave this until the last minute–it’s long!
