I hope you guys are enjoying your day off. Here's some more good news. Since we won't start chapter 18 until Tuesday/Wednesday, I'll push back the due date for the chapter 17 guided reading until then. So:

2nd, 4th, 6th period guided readings are due Tuesday, January 12th.

7th period guided readings are due Wednesday, January 13th.

While it isn't great news... at least you're getting the heads up. We'll also be having a quiz over chapters 15, 16 and 17 on Tuesday/Wednesday so be prepared.
