We Survived "Armageddon Day" and the First Full Week!

TODAY IN CLASS

First--"Self-Definition" papers collected.  Most people had the hard copy in class and had submitted it to turnitin.com  . If you are missing one obligation or the other, 

Then--We looked at the textbook structure for the Anglo-Saxon unit before picking up on p. 41 with literary terms that apply to poetry of the period. 
Students received a hand-out with those terms plus more, and a review questions for "The Seafarer" on the back.
We discussed the terms alliteration, caesura, and kennings, and 1st period completed a quick exercise on kennings.  Periods 2 and 5 will finish the kennings part on Monday, and everyone will apply the other definitions to the Seafarer text.  But we will do that in class using the book, so . . . 

FOR MONDAY
No homework over the week-end! :)
