Freshmen: Today we talked about the importance of cutting clutter and redundancies when revising a poem. You want your poems to be lean, clean, and tight. Revise your three current poems for this principle, and bring them to class on Monday. On Friday, we are meeting in the library. Please read for 20 minutes tonight and on the weekend. Also, bring your ten dollars for the new vocabulary program in the form of a check made out to Judge Memorial.
Sophomores: Today we focused on an extension of our discussion from yesterday, that being the notion of personal belief and elements of Taoism being present in the novels we read. We read a few essays from This I Believe and began a small project called Echoes of the Tao. Your homework is to complete Part I from Life of Pi, as well as your seminar prep. Due for next Friday is the worksheet that tracks the five essays you read on thisibelieve.org. Also, bring your ten dollars for the new vocabulary program in the form of a check made out to Judge Memorial.
