Here lies John Yeast/Pardon him for not rising!

 Update for A1:

We set up your debate teams.  We will have the debates on October 20.  You should be thinking about how to strongly present your points.  A little humour never hurts.  Try to appear confident.  Make sure you stick to the topic.

You should read "Horses of the Night" by Margaret Laurence.  Create a chart that shows the similarities and differences between The Wars and "Horses of the Night".  One thing that is similar is that they are both Canadian stories.

Be prepared to hand in your copy of The Wars with its stickies.

Write your own epitaph.  (Or, if that makes you feel a bit uncomfortable, you can write someone else's.)

Your bildungsroman draft is due next week.  You should be reading some poetry to prepare to create your poetry project.  If you read poetry for twenty minutes, you may use that as your reading log reading, but be sure to respond to what you read.

Next day:  Jack will ask the question of the day.  (Be on time!)
