In Class:

Group Presentations on assigned two segments of the Anglo-Saxon Intro Material found on pages 2-16 in text.

Remember: "Patricus" was not originally Irish, though he was a Brit
(Celt)!

If you missed the quiz, a GREAT time to make up the quiz is during HOMEROOM (or during period 3 or 6)! I WILL NOT HOUND YOU ABOUT MAKING UP WORK!
