Class today: November 2nd

Trick-or-treating lead to an ear infection in one of my five-year olds.

How did Gilgamesh go? There is a lot to dig into!
You need to partner up with a productive partner. Make sure you have your book and your notes.
You are starting to delve into the text in thorough manner. The questions I have listed below will help you start this process.

The expectations:
1. I am not just wanting you to "answer the question".
2. I am expecting you to take the question and make it into a topic/heading for your notes.
3. From this, you are to make lists of evidence and points/conclusions from the prompt. You need to be putting in textual examples in your notes, not just brief/vague references.

Questions to consider:
1. What have you learned about the history of the time period? How is it reflected in the reading? (historical context)
2.  What are the concerns of the people of the era?
3. What literary aspects do you recognize? (bring in previous literary analysis skills)
4. What about archetypes? Are you seeing any represented? How? What do they reveal about the meaning of the text?
5. What plot elements are important?

For next class period, you need to click on the "Epic Notes" link (on the right).
Get the notes on the Epic in your notes.
