Wednesday, September 7

Students checked out copies of the textbook for the year (Elements of Literature, 5th Course), an anthology of American literature.

Students also received a copy of a 400-year timeline to which they are to add the names and dates of forty American authors, along with the name of one work by each.

We continued our discussion of "The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven," and in some sections critiqued a further example of student writing about the story.

HW due Friday:
Complete the timeline (see Documents page).
