Literature:

We will continue our unit on American Romanticism this week, focusing on several more poems from the time period. We will also finish watching and discussing Dead Poets Society as we make connections between it and Romanticism.

Late in the week, we will venture outside with cell-phone cameras and capture some images that illustrate what Romanticism is and isn't. Our final assessment over Romanticism will most likely be next Monday, Nov. 9.
