This week we are going to focus on putting tools in your toolbox to become a proficient writer, and on reading for understanding and note-taking.
If you have any questions or thoughts, please feel free to call or text my cell phone or my email (I gave it to you in class). If you have lost or forgotten it, please leave a comment in the box below the post and I will get back to you.
Monday: In FAMOUS MEN OF THE MIDDLE AGES, read pp. 7-19, both chapters. Order or purchase Augustine Came To Kent, we will need it beginning late next week.

Plan to print and bring your STUDENT RESOURCE NOTEBOOK to class tomorrow.
Wednesday: IMPORTANT: Please print and bring your STUDENT RESOURCE NOTEBOOK. It is 100 pages so you may want to print it at a copy shop. We will explore some of the stylistic techniques on pp. 5-6 in the SRN and practice Key Word Outlining and revising the KWO with some of these techniques.
Thursday: In Biographies of Christian Saints, read, do the vocabulary, KWO and re-write pp. 14-15 St. Ambrose.
