Yipes! First quarter is over and I am rather overwhelmed, as evidenced by how lax I have been keeping this blog updated. Not to mention, you are all patiently waiting for your essay grades. Hang in a bit longer....I promise I have not forgotten you! Today we checked out The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien. The reading schedule is posted on the Important Links list. Be sure to keep up with your reading, because as we discussed in class we will be having several quizzy-poos intended to strengthen your rhetorical analysis skills and they will be a big pain to make-up if you miss class for excused absences and aren't prepared when you return. I love this book; hopefully you will too!
