Paideia Homework
English: The Creative Assessment on Antigone is due Friday, Feb. 12. Remember that you are completing 3 of the 5 choices. Review the criteria for each choice before you begin work on that part. Returning the non-folded, non-spindled, non-mutilated grading sheet earns you 1 point as long as you put your name on it!
For the next week, we will deviate a little from historical format for English and slip in Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis--a very cool novel about a man who turns into a life-sized dung beetle! After we finish that, we will rejoin Ms. Van Dyke as she ends the Middle Ages and moves into the Renaissance.
