We started out today with Riley giving each person a random word. Some sample words: cousin, fear, peanut, goat, random, duck. You couldn’t choose your word, but you could swap with someone. Riley wrote about her cousin.

We then talked about the “encounter” (aka quiz) from yesterday and she reviewed her major points that we’d need to know to understand the story.

However, that “encounter” gathered attention. And not the good kind of attention. The English Navy is on the search for the pirate who got into that fight, and we aren’t a position to fight the entire Navy. It’s time we slink into obscurity and wait for the heat to die down. We ended up meeting a group of 29 people at the Tabard Inn who were going on a pilgrimage to Canterbury. This was the perfect opportunity for us to hide out with them and wait for the authorities to calm down.

The only thing is that since we are travelling with these people, we have to know who they are. It would be a dead giveaway that we didn’t belong with these people if we didn’t even know who they are!

As we meet these people, we will take down notes about them to help us out in our journey so that it will look like we know what we are talking about. We’re going to use The Pilgim Cheat Sheet in LMS.

We were introduced to the Knight today and we filled out the cheat sheet about him together.
