Syllabus

"He who adds not to his learning diminishes it."

                                                 (The Talmud)

Good morning!  I hope your first week is going very well for you!

Today, I would like to discuss what we will be doing in this class -- the syllabus.  You can access it online on my school website for further review.

I read several of your poems last night and I would like to share some of them with you . . . . anonymously, of course. 

NOTE:  Please bring your text for this class home.  There is a possibility that you will be assigned work from the text to be completed at home.

HOMEWORK: Please begin your selection of an independent reading book for the first six weeks.  Your first book may be your choice or one selected from the required list.  You are due to have this selection by Monday of next week.  On Monday I will show you how to use GOODREADS.
