Ahoy! Progress Reports came out today, and boy, is Ekster upset. Historically, Term 3 is where we have our highest failure rate, so this pressure isn’t going to let up. Neither Ekster nor myself want anyone to fail, so you need to mindful of what is going on.

We finished watching The 13th Warrior today, and you even have an opportunity to earn up to 20 extra points by doing the 13th Warrior short answer. You can find this in the Beowulf folder and then in the 13th Warrior folder. Click on the dropbox and you will two questions:

1. How is The 13th Warrior influenced by Beowulf?

2. How has the story changed to appeal to a modern audience?

You can answer only one question, or you can answer both of them.
If you turn in your work before lunch, I’ll change the average on the progress report for you before you show it to Ekster at lunch today.

See how nice I am!
