Day Nine / 9.20.10

Today we started with a quote from Thomas Hardy: "Try to learn something about everything and everything about something." Then we edited a paragraph, and discussed expectations for our journals. The journal handout is here. Then we discussed Walt Whitman's poem excerpt, and took a pop-quiz. After that, we discussed beauty and how we as a society define beautiful appearance. We wrote a quickwrite about it. No homework, relax.
