This post is in addition to the previous one posted a few days ago. Tuesday I will be out of the classroom, but you will need to complete the following assignments before Wednesday:

1. Complete handout over William Shakespeare's video (handout was given in class and you should have already turned it in to the sub)
2. Complete the Shakespeare Information Search and have that ready for Wednesday (I will be taking this up if you did not complete it in class)
3. Any missing essays, current events, etc. should be turned in on Wednesday unless otherwise instructed to do so.

Welcome to this blog

This message is for my spring semester seniors. I am hoping to keep this page current, but sometimes there will be times when it might be 100% updated. You can check for upcoming assignments, ask questions, and just keep updated on things that are due in the next few days or weeks. This is a work in progress so please bear with me.
