Friday, January 23

Freshmen: Today our focus was on how your poem should be read (e.g. pauses, stressing of words, etc.). Have it memorized by the next block period. We also did a review and retake of the semester final exam you took. Read for 20 minutes and complete your time on Membean.

Sophomores: Today we began Oedipus the King. The reading schedule is posted on the blog. Complete the reading and your work on Membean. Memorize your Poetry Out Loud poem for our next block meeting.

Honors Sophomores: Today we got an introduction to some of the ideas we will find in Sophocles as well as an overview of Oedipus's backstory. Read through page 46 for Monday (to the start of the Third Choral Ode). Keep reading from Campbell, and memorize your Poetry Out Loud poem for our next block meeting.

CNF: Today we continued to study superpowers as well as the importance of childhood dreams and promises. Bring Batman and Philosophy for Monday's class, and have The Last Lecture for next week as well.
