Hello Seniors!
Time is certainly flying! Week six is upon us! I hope you are enjoying your study of Beowulf and the history leading up to the first English text. As promised, I am posting the long PPT from class online. I will give you your test on the historic background Thursday to be completed and returned by Monday, Sept. 19. Thursday in class we will begin reading the excerpts from Beowulf found in your texts. We will examine more closely the elements of the Epic, and the epic hero.
One aspect we will examine is the epic boast. You will be writing and performing your own boasts, so be prepared to make yourselves sound EPIC.
And don't forget Poetry Out Loud class competition is the last week of September.
So litle time....
See you in class!
Mrs. SO
