Freshmen - Tuesday, March 31, 2009

Today was spent going over the reading from last night and sharing travel nightmare stories, which was fun. We discussed the use of imagery and description in storytelling and also went over issues presented in the stories such as social class relations, marriage customs, and cultural attitudes towards the poor. You also had a little bit of time to review for the quiz, which will take place on block day. Homework tonight: review your summary charts and the stories and poems from our Middle East literature section!
