Brit Lit:

Today:
The first 10 minutes were given to finish up on finding examples of the lit terms that I gave you yesterday.  This is a part of your final exam- so please make sure that you understand the terms, and can explain how each is used.

I asked you to describe what your room 101 would be like.  What are your greatest fears?

We reviewed your reading of the essay: Politics and the English Language.

We summarized:
Never use a common metaphor, simile, or figure of speech
Never use long words when short ones will do.
If it is possible to cut, cut.
Never use a passive voice when you can use the active.
Never use a scientific word or jargon f you can't think of a everyday equivalent

We reviewed your reading.

We took a quiz on your reading.

I passed back your poetry projects.  Great job on those.  I greatly enjoyed reading these..
