Pre-AP English 9
After continuing our lesson on commas, students had the opportunity to edit and revise their essays from last week. Afterwards, we continued our study of Shakespeare and the English Language.
Homework: Students should finish revising and re-writing their poetry analyses tonight and bring them to class tomorrow. They should also begin memorizing the first twelve lines of the Canterbury Tales prologue in Middle English. They will recite it on Monday, January 25.
