Just a reminder.

Here is the reading/quiz schedule for War of the Worlds

By Monday 28th: through chapter 12

By Thursday 31st: to Book II

By Monday 4th: finish Book II and Epilogue

Read at your own pace, but be ready for the quizzes on these dates.

We will be finishing Dracula by February 4th.  Read at your own pace (finish early if you want), but finish chapter 15 by Monday 28, chapter 20 by Thursday 31, and the rest of the book by the 4th.  We will have a reading quiz on each of the days mentioned, so be sure you have read at least the recommended number of chapters.

Quick edit.  After much discussion and deliberation, we will not be turning in the visual projects on Friday.  I am granting a continuance across the board, with one requirement:

You must bring your project to school on Friday.  It does not need to be finished, but I want to see your progress.

We will be working on the visual aspect of our MGRP visuals tomorrow.  Please remember to bring your sources to class, as we will be turning in a rough outline/project proposal at the end of class.  This outline should contain the following:

• A description of media to be used (computer animation, pen and ink, collage, photography, etc.)
• A description of content to be included in the work (metaphor, color, design elements, text, sketch of panels if creating a comic strip)
• A list of sources to be referenced in the work (these are the books/papers you should bring to class tomorrow)

We will be spending a lot of time on this project, so spend time thinking about what you would like to say with your piece (message), then determine how you should deliver it (medium).  If you have any questions, or would like to run an idea by the class, post a comment below.
