1. Warming up "Salvador, Late or Early" and an MMM reading
2. Experimenting with surprising figurative language in your writing: Trying out an abstract-to-concrete writing drill
3. Returning to drafting and conferencing on your college essays
HW:
1. Ongoing: Continue drafting your college essay and coming in to conference with me.
- Essays are due September 16 by 4:00 pm.
- Reread Chapters 13-20 in The Odyssey to prepare for our one Socratic seminar next week.
- Prepare a ticket by trying out the following exercise in character empathy: Rewrite one scene from the first-person perspective of a minor character (not Odysseus or Telemachus). You can handwrite or type and print, and it should be about a page.
- Compose your next poetry response. Instead of a packet, I'd like you to use this website: https://poets.org/poem-a-day and select one of the current or past poems-of-the-day. We're going contemporary!
