Week 14--25 days to Final Exams

Hello All,

By now your Parallel Reading Abstract should be in turinitin.com under Revision 1 if you turned it in last Friday (before Spring Break), and Revision 2 if you didn't.  Remember, if you're turning it in late, you need to turn it in tonight before midnight for the highest possible grade of a 90, tomorrow for an 80, etc.

This week we're starting with pg. 1322, reading the background information on Chinua Achebe before reading his short story, "Marriage is a Private Affair" (p. 1329), and his response "On Marriage is a Private Affair" (p. 1338).  These Cornell style Notes are due on Thursday, the same day as your Mid Unit Benchmark--which will concern the vocabulary of short stories.  Be sure that you can define the elements and apply them to a story.

25 days to Final Exams.  All of the grades between now and then are already posted in Pinnacle.  I'll get the Parallel Reading Abstracts graded as soon as I can.  Your confirmation of if you turned it in should be in the "Not a Grade" category by today.
