I swear, we have a test gremlin this year who is conspiring against us. Our Canterbury Tales test which was supposed be on Thursday, has been moved to Friday.

We also missed Ms. Miller today. Shout out to my First Mate – hope to see you back tomorrow! <3

So today, we read the Miller’s Tale, but I encouraged people to use this time wisely. The Miller’s Tale won’t be on the test, so if you are missing assignments, GET THOSE ZEROS IN.

I graded the Linear Arrays, The Middle Ages Background PowerPoint, and I put in zeros if you didn’t turn in your little books.

Tomorrow, we will play review games over the following topics:

  • Middle Ages history
  • Direct/indirect characterization
  • Irony
  • The Prologue
  • The Wife of Bath’s tale
  • The Pardoner’s Tale

PARENTAL ADVISORY: EXPLICT LYRICS – How many of you have seen a CD with that warning on it and avoided it? Or does it just make you want to listen to the CD even more?

That’s how the Miller’s Prologue started out. Riley even asked people if they wanted to skip the story and go to the library because it was going to be a naughty story, but NO ONE LEFT.

The story, y’all, if you didn’t read it, go read it. You can either read the story in NoFear or read/listen to the rap.

We then did RAFT for the story with a postcard. The post card template is in LMS.

After that, we worked on the moral thermometer.
