Quick, everyone, what is an elegy? If you can answer that, then you are progressing nicely.
Thanks for doing your best on the in class timed writing today. Even though I am not going to be collecting them, they still have value. I'll be asking you to analyze your peers and discuss what makes a successful timed writing. You'll be taking a very important timed writing the first week of March. Any practice or help you can get between now and then to prepare you for the experience is valuable.
I have another timed writing in my back pocket: "The Interlopers" and "The Poison Tree". We'll decide tomorrow exactly how we will be handling those two pieces.
Remember to have your classic book with you tomorrow. I want to make sure that you have the correct version of the book AND you might have time to read tomorrow.
Keep working on the Project Imagination piece. Rough draft will be coming to class with you on Tuesday, February 19.
The acuity predictive test will be this Thursday. Then we are off for four days. That means we need to tie up some loose ends tomorrow. We'll pack in as much as we can.
See you tomorrow.
