Juniors:
Everyone needs to read "Wife of Bath's Tale" in your textbook. As noted, it is a romance (not the kind with Fabio on the cover), and is also part of the "marriage group" of tales. Basically, the story answers the question: what do women really want in marriage?
Also, I want you to start on the sample PSAT test I gave out last week. Non-Honors should complete the first page (#1-8), writing out the sentences with the correct vocabulary words. Honors should finish the first section (#1-24), writing only the answers. We will go over the correct answers in class and I will answer any questions you have as we proceed through the booklet.
Seniors:
Your FINAL DRAFT of the problem/solution paper is due on TUESDAY 9/21. Bring all sources used in the paper. Your final draft should be at least THREE PAGES.
We will be writing an in-class ANALYSIS essay this week. We'll read a couple of articles/essays on football and write an analysis of the authors' use of language. More on that later this week.
