Friday & Online Textbook

Okay, I had planned on warning my classes today (Thursday) that I would be out of the building on Friday 2/27. I have to chaperone a club competition. But school was closed. So...yeah. Here are some pointers on Friday's class material, and going into the weekend:

The Lit Book Is Online
Haha, that's not a link.
Which means you don't have to take your physical book home, if you don't want to.

Here is the login page: Right here.

I also created an Online Textbook Guide to assist students with their Usernames and Passwords:

This is the guide as a Word Document.

This is the guide as a PDF.

Once you successfully log in, change your password. I cover that in the guide.

If you have a specific question about why your information doesn't work, e-mail me. We'll work it out. 

But don't e-mail me at 11:45 on Sunday night with a problem, and then tell me it was my fault that you didn't read. I will laugh.

HW For Monday: Put your floaties on, kids. I'm throwing you into deep water.

• Read The Odyssey Part 1 pages 1045-1063. This will include:
• The Invocation of the Muse
• "Sailing From Troy" (Odysseus tells a king of his adventures in a flashback)
• "The Lotus-Eaters"
• "The Cyclops" (possibly the most famous/well-known of Ody's adventures)
• Respond, in your Classwork notebooks, to Q 1-4 (all parts) on page 1049.
• Bring me your questions, written down or in your mind, on Monday. Seriously, The Cyclops is a tough story, but it's great. Don't rush it. And bring me your questions.
