Period 1: We discussed the intro and the many allusions made in the poem along with the metaphor of wine and how it works in the book. I also handed out reading guides for the book. We then read the first section of the book where Douglas wakes up the sleeping town on the first day of summer. No HW tonight.
Period 2,7,8: We read much of the end of chapter 7 discussing along the way each event and why London includes the event. HW is to complete the novel for Friday and to take notes especially about the Legend of the Ghost Dog. Please have a new Ir book in class on Wednesday. We will take the final test on COTW on Tuesday of next week.
