Some of you may know (be it from the class website or from your child) that our focus lately has been on Austen's "Pride and Prejudice". We will be reading the text and discussing it in class, but on the day we hand in our final essay, I thought it would be a nice break for the students if they were to watch the film, which tends to seem a little less dry than the text. We will also be spending some time in the computer lab, researching activities, fashions, foods, and other such things that were popular in Austen's day.
If it is possible, I would like to have each student bring in $5 so we can have some of the snacks we learn about from Austen's day, or if that proves to be too difficult, just a bag of chips while we watch our movie. If you or your child are unable to give $5 for this, please let me know and we can work something out.
Thanks a ton!
