A Note on Catching Up Next Week

Hey class,

so, we missed a week of class, unfortunately.  I hope you all wintered safely and weren't caught in horrendous traffic.  There are two options for us catching up: we can either push the class readings further and take away a week workshop, which I'm not particularly a fan of, or we can excise some readings from our schedule, mostly from the anthology, Singing School, and try to finish all our lecturing/exercises by Feb 24th.  We can talk about this in class, but feel free to leave your vote as a comment as well.

Either way, though, the Collaborative Presentations will have to be pushed back a week.  So, if you look on the syllabus, Group A was supposed to present/bring in a prompt to get us writing on Wednesday.  Group A will now present (I use that verb purely out of convenience) this Wednesday, 2/5, group B will present that next Wednesday, so on and so forth.  You should have gotten a paper with your group assignment on it--if you need another copy, email me and I'll send it to you.  I would like some paperwork when it's your day to present--I'll bring in an assignment sheet detailing what I would like to be turned in Monday.

As for reading, lets try to tackle the sestina and the pantoum  from The Making of a Poem on Monday, Feb 3, and then your pick two out of three will be due Feb 10.
