Agenda for Week of 10.20.08


Andy Warhol's "Ten Portraits of Jews of The Twentieth Century - Franz Kafka". Screenprint on Lenox Museum Box. 1980.


Focus: Irony, Theme, and Symbol


10.20.08: Late entry day and (due to the unfortunate nature of rotation) you will not meet with me this day.
10.21.08: 3rd draft of College Essay due. Two-sided notes on "Theme", pgs. 189-191, "Symbol", pgs. 236-238, & you may want to recheck your summer notes on "Irony." We will have a SLD on Jorge Luis Borges' "The Gospel According to Mark" (pgs. 183-187) & The King James version of "The Gospel of Mark".
10.22.08: AP TEST, SECTION 1, questions 1-24 due in my C House mailbox. I have a Professional Day: I'm actually teaching Thangka painting (traditional Tibetan Buddhist paintings) to Math teachers in the DYS system. Cool stuff. I'm sure you'll use the time off wisely. The Kafka story is rather long, but fantastic (in every sense of the word.)
10.23.08: SLD on Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis." We will focus on the first two sections.
10.24.08: SLD on Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis." We will focus on the second and third sections. After lunch, you will split into groups and retake the AP TEST.
DON'T FORGET TO UPDATE BLOGS (YOUR BLOG AND MY BLOG) WITH ALL THE WORK YOU'VE BEEN DOING. YOU'LL WANT ALL UP-TO-DATE AT THE END OF THE QUARTER.
