English 11: I collected the interviews today . . .

Today, the final essay was presented by Jake and Mitch. We reviewed for tomorrow's test (See yesterday's blog for the outline).

Tonight: Organize your notebook. Have all of your literary techniques, definitions and examples in one place. If you do not, you will run out of time on the test.

Make sure you have read June Callwood's essay and that you have her thesis, key details and examples of techniques written down. You will also need at least two quotations.

Have the thesis statements for each essay written down in your own words. Re-read any essay which you found difficult to understand.

I'm looking forward to your essays. Re-read all the handouts this weekend. If you need assistance, come in to see me.

We start the Shakespearean tragedy, Othello, Monday.
