Mr. Lazarow opened up class today with three things. The first is that apparently the senior powder puff football team is not looking too good. This is because they do not have enough people. I am assuming you can sign up if you are interested? If not they may be getting crushed by the juniors who have a team and have already had practices.
The second item Mr. Lazarow went over was an opportunity with the writer, Larry Smith! He wrote the six-word memoirs book and is coming to our school and to host three sessions with students. If you are interested in going to a session, let Mr. Lazarow know and he'll try to get you in. But I do not know if this opportunity is still available... :(
Item three was regarding Beowulf. He explained that we were not using class time productively because we were asking questions about the comprehension of the poem. Mr. Lazarow said we should focus on harder issues in class and use the blog and hard work to answer others in our own time.
Other than that we started talking about Beowulf's battle against Grendel's mother today. We reached around the point where he finds the sword in the cave. However, then we got a bit distracted because a big portion of the class did not know that the Roman Empire preceded the Anglo-Saxon era.
