Tuesday, December 1 and Wednesday, December 2

Freshmen: Today we worked for a little while on your Grandparent Project essay. The rest of this needs to be done on your own; refer to the handout I gave you if you have questions. We also began reading Of Mice and Men. For Thursday's class you should read pages 1-12. As you read, work on the  guide sheet for the book. Work on Membean this week, as well.

Sophomores: Today we focused on the concept of irony. We also spent some time working on your analytical essays about The Alchemist. I hope that time was useful for you. You should be done with The Alchemist and the readings in How to Read Literature Like a Professor by Thursday's class, and your essay is due no later than Friday (both paper and turnitin.com copies). Your The Power of One essay revisions are due Monday. Work on Membean this week, as well.

CNF: We continued viewing Hoop Dreams (you know you hear that song in your head right now).
