12th Academic English
Enjoy your day off on Monday! On Tuesday, we will discuss Morte d'Arthur (p.176) and will prepare for a test on Beowulf and Arthurian Literature. That test will happen on Wednesday, October 15th. After the test, and continuing through the rest of the week, we will begin watching the film Becket. You must take careful notes on this film, as you will be required to complete an essay test on the changing concept of hero as seen through all of the information presented to you since the start of the school year.
