Quiz: Books 7 and 8

Date of test changed to Friday, 1 April. Format will remain the same; however, you will have a "list" of possible answers-please note that some answers are intended to "trick" you or simply do not apply to any of the "TEN" questions.

Make-up Policy

Effectively immediately, if you miss a quiz/test-you will have 48 hours to make-up that quiz/test during 37 1/2 minutes. I am not pleased with those students who missed the SAT List 3 Vocabulary Test on Monday, 28 March and have yet to show-up to take it. Your last day to do so will be Thursday, 31 March. This is unfair to your class mates since you are actually having additional time to study.

KNOW THIS INFORMATION! "Yes, you will be tested on it. More importantly, your English 10 teacher will query you on this."

Mythweb

All the stories of Greek Mythology, including The Odyssey. http://www.mythweb.com/ When you open this page, click on the words below the title, "Gods"-"Heroes"-etc.- Do not forget about the other resource links on this site.

Throughout the Week of 28 March, we will view this power-point (ppt), I suggest that you view and take notes on this ppt on your own since we will not have time in class to wait for everyone to take notes while advancing from slide to slide. If desired, print a copy of this ppt (3 slides/page). On Tuesday (5 April), you will take a "Quiz" on the content of this ppt.
