Timed write Friday, & soliloquy stragglers to follow

in

Dear students,

Be sure to bring your copies of Hamlet on Friday. We're going to kick off with a 40 minute essay (I'll give you 10-15 minutes in advance to examine the prompt & outline some notes), then shift to performance mode for the last of the Hamlet soliloquies.
I may use the opportunity to examine the soliloquies as poetry, but juniors will have priority for any forecasting needs—rounding up signatures, getting last-minute advice, etc.
And don't forget Journalism, juniors, as you look over your options for your last year at old Westview High. Too bad it isn't Persimmon University—gold old P.U.
T.T.F.N.,
J.D.

Or Pimento University... :D
Thanks for the cartoon break, though, Mr.Duncan. It made my day!

I actually have a doctor's appointment I need to go to in the morning, so I will be gone from class at 9:30. Is there a way I could make up the timed write/classwork?
