Dear Class,
Happy Week 11 to you! We have three weeks left of heavy labor before the end of the semester. I know you are up for the challenge!
Reflecting on Week 10:
You did such a good job examining Henry's development (or lack thereof) and the themes and symbols in A Farewell to Arms last week. Thank you for sharing your insights and helping us engage in closer reading, analysis, and discovery. It was my pleasure to read your "Is Faulkner Uplifting?" essays last week; I loved that about 50% of you maintained that the book was not uplifting and the other half said it was. All your convincing arguments and source support illuminated my understanding of the book. "Thee lift me and I'll lift thee, and we ascend together."
Week 11 Responsibilities:
- Read Travels with Charley.
- Essay #2 Drafts are due on the Peer Review Discussion Board #2 by Wednesday, July 6th. I'll assign partners early on Thursday morning. Peer reviews need to be posted by Saturday, July 9th, demonstrating feedback on the essays and on the English 335 rubric. Remember, these peer review discussion boards are worth 20 points, so make sure you're doing everything required here!
- Participate in Questions for your Classmates Week 11 discussion board throughout the week.
- Lesson 28 discussion board.
- Lesson 29: Write brief essay about one theme in Travels with Charley.
- Take reading quiz.
That's it for Week 11.
Best of luck as you work hard this week. I am praying for you, and I am here if you need me.
Sincerely,
Sister Bowen
