Class Procedures and Reminders
Project Stack. Today I should be able to get through all the assignments that were turned in before Friday, plus as many assignments from Friday as I can manage. So, if you are ready to turn something in, please do that! I'll be updating the stack so you'll be able to check the stack and see that I received your email.
One More Week! The class will be over one week from today, next Friday at noon. If you've been keeping up with the assignments, you'll be ready to finish now! If you missed some assignments earlier in the semester, you can use this coming week to finish up. When you get the points you need (410/A, 360/B, 320/C), then you are all done. If you have any questions about that, let me know!
The following items are for fun and exploration:
Myths. Check out the detailed view of this amazing diagram: Mythical Creatures.
Words from India. Here is another word we get via Urdu: KHAKI.
Featured Storybook. This project is from the Indian Epics class: The Adventures of Rama and Lakshmana. As the Storybook begins, Rama is sitting at home, watching TV, trying to figure out just where things went so wrong. Rama fought so hard to be together with Sita... but somehow, things do not turn out as either of them had hoped.
