Virginia Woolf reading

Please meet your reading goal over break. We´ll be having a summative assessment about your reading on Friday. You should have read nearly 300 pages by then.

Take a look at some student samples of Q3 from 2016.

Fences or A Streetcar Named Desire

We will read/watch one more work before the exam - that may help review terms and themes.

Our two options are the plays Fences or A Streetcar Named Desire.

Watch the trailers and vote on the sidebar by Friday.

Sound Poem Inspiration and Due Date

Need some sound poem inspiration? Try Yoko Ono's moving "Voice Piece for Soprano" or Tracie Morris's "Too Black".

Please upload your sound poems to soundcloud.com, then embed the soundcloud file in your blog. Do so by Friday, April 7th.

Homework for Wednesday

Given we've had a week and a half with our books, we should all be roughly one hundred pages in. If this is tough for you, why not try an audio book - many free ones can be found on Livrivox and others with a free trial for Audible.com.

Here's the rubric I'll be using to assess your post-its.
