I added the reading schedule once again below. Make sure you finish Great Expectations over the break.

  • The Motif Assignment will be due Friday, 6th April of the week you return from spring break. You will also have a "Take Home" Essay Exam that week, so if you want to save some time, you can do the Motif Assignment now, if you haven't already!

Motif Explanation

HW: Please read chapters 34 and 35 for tomorrow. Finish writing your prompt (if you were absent, click on the link, and choose ONE OF THE PROMPTS Quote Prompts and bring it to class tomorrow for discussion.

***For Thursday:
  • Please bring 3 motif examples from the novel. 
  • You do not need to type these out,
  • You do not need to write out an explanation or analysis.
  • All I am asking is that you write down the example with the page number on notebook paper, so that you can share yours with a partner and then exchange ideas--it's a way of helping each other with the project.
  • This will serve as a quiz grade, so make sure to take this assignment seriously.
This should give you everything you need! Keep up on the reading! If you're ever absent, it will always be two chapters a night (four over the weekend) from here on out. Also, we will have a reading check quiz soon.
