Average English 12 (March 10, 2008)

In Class:

"Coffeehouse Gossip" activity...students gathered into groups to "learn" what they could about their classmate's lives and to gossip in honor of Joseph Addison and Sir Richard Steele.

Read the introduction to Addison and Steele on pg 567 in the text entitle: Wit, Morality, and Coffeehouse Gossip

Those people assigned to bring-in chocolate milk and cookies--try not to forget!
