English 10 (ALL classes): Feb.-28-Mar. 4

Greetings Sophomores!

I certainly hope you all studied and are ready for graduation exams. I am rooting for you to pass them all the first try! Make sure you get plenty of rest each night and that you eat a good breakfast.

This week in class we will be doing the following tasks:
  • Last minute review for the language exam
  • Take a quiz on vocabulary lesson 12
  • Turn in note cards for the research paper
  • Finish Puritan literature with a look at poetry by Edward Taylor and some excerpts for Cotton Mather's Wonders of the Invisible World
  • Introduce the Age of Reason and the historical reasons for it
  • And, if time permits, read Franklin's Autobiography and Franklin's "Dialogue with the Gout." When we read these works, we will discuss how they align with the ideologies of the rationalists.

Don't forget that you must upload your outlines and bring research paper rough drafts next week. Check my moodle page for exact dates. So much to do...so little time.

See you in class!

Mrs. SO
