English III

Here is the Presentation from Tuesday and Wednesday over Native American Literature.

These notes should be on page 16 of your notebook.  Your response on page 17 is to list myths you have heard before (as many as you can think of), local, American, Mexican, etc. Then, explain what unexplainable, mysterious thing does the myth try to explain.

Interactive Notebook

Here is the link to the notes explaining your Interactive Notebook.  If you didn't copy the notes, please take time to write down the proper way of using your notebook. I know there was some confusion as to where to glue/write things.  Hopefully after the initial confusion is cleared up, we can all be on the same page (literally).
