october 15

AGENDA:
1. Checking in and planning the week (and yes, you're going to read more Canterbury Tales :)
2. Notes/review on symbolism
3. Journal

JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Happy Birthday"]

As an expert in symbolism, please explain the relatively new trend of throwing flour and eggs on people to "celebrate" their birthdays. Older people may regard this behavior as assault or a desperate plea for attention; is there a deeper significance to this practice, or is it as dumb as it looks?

COMMENT to this post with the fiction novel you're reading.  Please include the title, the author, and the reason you chose it.

POST to your blog about your thoughts on working independently (title: I'M IN CHARGE/ 1st sentences: "Some high school students need to be told what to do all the time and reminded or threatened when they don't get the job done.  Independent work can be challenging, but I like it because...")

  1. The book i chose was 11/22/63 because it seemed interesting and it just popped out to me. The author is Stephen King and he has written many more intriguing books, but this ine really jumped out at me.

  4. Title: Pay It Foward
    Author: Catherine Ryan Hyde
    The Reason I chose this book was it had a good hook and made me want to keep reading to see what more information or details I would get from The book.
