This one's on me!

This morning John shared with us the importance of reserving judgement.

We reviewed the medieval period and discussed everything from the difference between miracle and morality plays to how the English language got its humble beginnings.

Good copies of Riddles were handed in and if you were not in that number do please hand those in straightaway.

Then it was off to discover the man second only to Shakespeare . None other than Mr. Chaucer himself. His Prologue to Canterbury Tales was amusing and informative. You need to answer all questions for the pilgrims read in class and the following three after that.

There was a bonus assignment handed out as well. I was convinced to permit presentations for that assignment to be on next Friday at the latest

There was a real assignment on Canterbury and that is due a week from today.

Kellie is doing devos tomorrow and Joseph still is next in line to blog.

Don't judge me,
Mrs. Loconte
