A couple of changes and some reminders

This Wednesday/Thursday, there will be a quiz on cantos 26-34.
You must also bring a draft of three cantos--typed and double-spaced. I would like for you to bring two drafts, but a minimum of one is required. I am counting the peer-editing session as a quiz grade and students that do not have the required materials will lose 25 points at the start.

This Friday (March 12): Vocabulary review unit is due.

Because of the plays, sports, and other activities, I have arranged for another class period in the computer lab on Monday and Tuesday.

Next Wednesday and Thursday (March 17th and 18th), there will be a vocabulary test on chapters 10-12 (including classical roots).

The final Inferno product will now be due the week before spring break. That is, any of the days between Monday and Friday. Because you have an entire week, however, I will not accept any late work. If you do not have it in my hands by Friday, April 2, 2010, I will grade only what I have in your portfolio so far. As I have not been collecting any subsequent drafts, that will not amount to much.
