Class Procedures and Reminders
Labor Day Weekend. (repeat announcement) Monday is the Labor Day holiday. So, Week 2 still ends tomorrow, Sunday, as usual, but Week 3 does not start until Tuesday. See the Week 3 page for details.
Project Stack. I don't check email as often over the weekends, but when I do check in, I will update The Stack so that you will know I received your Week 2 Project assignment. I'll be replying to those in the order received, so the sooner you get that turned in, the sooner you will get comments back from me. If you wait until Sunday to turn that in, you will have to wait longer to get comments back.
The following items are for fun and exploration:
Fairy Tale books. Since many of you in Myth-Folklore will be browsing the Freebookapalooza this weekend, I wanted to share this nifty poster of Fairy Tale Composers and Collectors.
Spelling. We need as much humor as we can get when it comes to English spelling: Pterodactyl Pteenagers: Ptommy's been on the ptelephone for over ptwo hours! It's my pturn!

Featured Storybook. This project is from the Myth-Folklore class: The Last of the Seapeople. This Storybook contains the tales of Shameil, last of the seapeople. The seapeople once thrived in the great waters of the world until humanity destroyed their habitat, and in the stories of the seapeople and their lost civilization there is a warning for us all.
Words of Wisdom: Today's saying is Life's not all beer and skittles (an English proverb). Find out more at the Proverb Lab. This is skittles-the-game, not Skittles the candy.
Today's Video: Raise Your Mask Purim. No, it is not the holiday of Purim, but since some of you in Myth-Foklore have been reading about Esther, the Biblical heroine, I thought you might enjoy this fun music video:
Growth Mindset: Today's growth mindset cat is an explorer: Open the door... and explore the unknown! You can find out more at the Growth Mindset blog.
