Another Manic Monday - 9/9/2013

B-Day Students - This Monday has just flown by, but unfortunately my to do list has just gotten longer.  Here is your to-do list for tonight to prepare you for Wednesday's class.

Honors English II

Tonight you need to read the handout I gave you which is the excerpted version of Sundidata as well as some background information on epics and Mali.  Please make sure to read everything, including the background information.

Tonight you need to read the epic and you need to take notes as you read in your text.  This is called annotating.  For tonight, I want you to focus on the main character and his antagonist.  As you read the text, mark quotations and moments which develop each of these characters for you.  Be sure to make a note when you underline or highlight something to remind you as to why you marked that particluar passage.  As you read you should also continue working on your vocabulary bookmarks.

ESL English III

Tonight you should continue working on your definition paragraphs.  Next class we are going to finish our work on "Puertoricanness" and then we will move on to finishing our definition paragraphs.
