IN CLASS TODAY
First, there was a question today about the Metamorposis books checked out from school.  Yes, I had collected them ages ago and took them back to the library myself; however, not everyone had the book in class that day.  If you did not, you need to take it back to the bookroom ASAP. 

We pretty much covered the material on yesterday's blog, "answering" some of the rhetorical questions as we went along.  Not every class did absolutely everything, though: check the blog, see what might have been missed in your section, and we will try to pick it up if it isn't resolved in the final presentation.

People actually doing the final presentation--be SURE that you have given thought to yesterday's blog!!

FOR TOMORROW
You must be finished with the book.  Period.  I have to admit, that in cruising through a variety of questions today, there was quite a bit of disparity in what people were able to recall and utilize in a useful critical fashion.  To a certain extent, this is probably no different from variations in what people can do in calculus, physics, or AP Gov--nevertheless, with AP Lit, it all starts with the reading.  Do it.

As mentioned in all classes, our EOC schedule tomorrow leaves us with only 30 minutes.  The presentations will need to carry over until Friday--just expect to do that.  Do not try to cram your info into a mere 30 minutes, or shorten your planned presentation to fit that time.  We will use whatever part of Friday we need.
