Wonderful review work today. You certainly are prepared for our unit test, Thursday. I sent you the practice test via email and included the answer key. Try to predict what the paragraph topics will be so that you can memorize a few key quotes in order to support your opinions in the most insightful manner possible. However, you will not be penalized for not using quotes as long as you provide suffiencent examples (paraphrases) to support your insights.
If you are absent for the test, I need an email from your parents or house parents. Without a legitimate reason, you may not be able to have a second opportunity.
Memorize the literary must-haves. Double space and write in ink.
You may bring a laptop to write the paragraph.
RECITATION PRESENTATIONS MONDAY. IF YOU NEED AN EXTENSION LET ME KNOW TODAY. IF YOU ARE ABSENT YOU WILL NEED A DOCTOR'S NOTE. FAILING TO PLAN IS PLANNING TO FAIL. HOW DO YOU LIKE MY APHORISM?
I'm very proud of what you have accomplished during unit one. Well done. If you wish to rewrite your Beowulf or Chaucer paragraphs, please hand those new drafts stapled to the originals by Monday.
Friday, Oct. 21: Class is cancelled due to Ms. Stenson's absence. Practice with a friend. Be ready to delight and entertain the class with your superb rendering of your chosen piece.
