TODAY IN CLASS

2nd and 5th periods--
If you were in class today, you should have 1) received a rap hand-out, 2) signed up into groups, and 3) found out what your passage is after someone from your group drew lots.  SO--your assignment for tomorrow is to write the summary of all essential points.  The idea is to turn about 100 lines of actual text into 32-40 lines of rap.  Follow the individual instructions, submit to turnitin.com, and bring a copy of your summary to class tomorrow.  The turnitin.com on-time folder is until 9:55 a.m. on Wednesday.

Then we worked somewhat with sections 35-41.

1st period--mainly just finishing up 36-43; students signed up for the Beowulf rap project, and representatives drew numbers for your actual passage.  However, the bell rang before everyone got a firm handle on the actual passage.  So.  If possible, you should proceed with the individual work, but if you didn't get the word on your passage, we will have to adjust.  I'm opening turnitin.com though.
