Beowulf and The Anglo-Saxons:
We will begin the week with discussion of Beowulf, which students read and took notes over last week, before beginning a series of stations/centers related to various aspects of Anglo-Saxon culture and literature. We should be ready for our assessment over Anglo-Saxon literature at the end of the week or by next Monday. I'll let students know when that assessment will be no later than Tuesday of this week.
Summer Reading Wiki Assignment:
Students should have posted their responses for their books by the end of last week and should post two replies to their peers' responses by midnight this Wednesday. Please see me or email regarding any issues you run into with Wikispaces.
