For the ill and the absent-minded -

Here, you will find a very brief summary of class discussions and activities, lists of assigned readings, and links to other resources. The posts are reminders of what we covered in class and/or of what you missed by being absent physically and/or mentally. If we are required to work remotely, the posts will give directions for the day's activities, and let you know when we will meet via Google Meets. Please read the posts, talk with your classmates, and do the practise work as it suits the timing at home. Please put all work in your digital folders via Google Drive. Feel free to make comments and if you're still confused, please email me!

(NB: I do not condone class absences - you must be present, in class, actively listening and participating whenever possible. Always communicate your absences with the school office as well as with me. It is your responsibility to make arrangements for missed learning opportunities. You MUST meet all assignment deadlines. If we have to meet via Google Meets, please make a note of the QR link posted in Room 205 for the meeting id and passwords.)

B - ... when I found something literary about K-Pop Demon Hunters.

ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS: Are heroes essential to society? Who are our heroes? What are their stories?

We discussed briefly what "literature" could be and what makes a story "heroic". We looked together at Joseph Campbell's "The Hero's Journey" and learners shared about how various film and movies followed the pattern:


We reviewed the class blog and course outline, including how to gather learning artefacts and curate them in a portfolio so as to inform assessment.

Learners creates folders in Google Drive to house evidence of learning. I distributed textbooks and learners filled in the textbook forms.

READ: "The Anglo-Saxon Period" (pages 2-12)

NEXT CLASS: Be ready to share a brief summary of the section I assigned you today.
