Average English 12 (October 29, 2007)

In Class:

Any and all straggling late papers were to be turned in by the end of the day today. Many of you had no problem understanding your need to make things up. Those of you who had trouble "getting-it," I have very little sympathy for as your warnings have been many and frequent!!!

YOU WILL HAVE A UNIT EXAM ON THE MIDDLE AGES FRIDAY!!!

We Read-through Sir Gawain and the Green Knight on Pages 158-165...we will be discussing the story tomorrow in class, and you will need to submit a plot structure diagram including:

The Exposition
Rising Action
The Climax
Falling Action
and The Conclusion

WE WILL GO OVER THIS INFORMATION IN CLASS TOMORROW. IF YOU MISS CLASS, THEN YOU NEED TO ACQUIRE THE INFORMATION FROM A CLASSMATE, OR COME SEE ME WHEN I DON'T HAVE A CLASS (Periods 3 and 6) !!!
