Today we begin a new movie, "Confessions of a Shopaholic". Have you seen it? Over the rest of the week, we will watch clips & answer questions about it each day. The questions will be checked for a daily grade like the blogs are done weekly. How do you feel about that? Explain. Next week, we will begin a project that goes along with the movie.
Never actually seen it. I feel like it will help me learn and help my grades.
