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 you told me I had main character energy what with my Scottish accent and all.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION: What is with the Pre-Romantics obsession with animals?

At first you had Mr. Hurtubise, and you were petrified

Thinking: "How could Ms. Ignacio leave you by his side?"

And after spending minutes

Thinking how I did you wrong...

You grew strong

And Mr. Hagen came along...

Just a little bit of play to see if you're actually keeping up with my blog posts!

You spend most of the class working on Burns's Scottish dialect poem, "To A Mouse" and prepared a dramatic reading, which we will hear next class!

READ: She Stoops to Conquer, Gray, Burns, Blake

NEXT CLASS: from reason to the sublime
