Sept. 09

I hope you are keeping up with the reading. If not, please, please, please take advantage of the weekend. It might seem like you can slide by without completing the full text for now, but it will be nearly impossible to complete the unit with a test and paper, without having the background and understanding you get from actually going through the novel.

Again, if you are struggling with the reading come talk to me, and we'll find resources to make this text come alive for you.

The homework is to read Books 13-16 of The Odyssey, and to study the vocabulary (we will have a quiz on the first 13 words on Wednesday, Sept. 15 (not next class period, but the one after it).

PS: My goals this weekend is to post some YouTube vids of the story to help you out.
