ANNOUNCEMENTS ! ! !

Begin reading the novel, The Things They Carried  by Tim O'Brien, if you have not already started.


Quiz over the novel:
the first class day, the week of April 28th


We will be reading and discussing the novel over the next two weeks and your final in-class essay will be over this novel.


FINAL EXAM SCHEDULE - this must be written in-class; you may not use the book, but you can use an index card which contains notes (yes, front and back); you will NOT know the topics in advance, but we will not discuss aspects of the novel that are not relevant to the final


Every person in every class will be assigned a character; you need to know everything about this character that can be gleaned from reading the book:
- who he is?
- what is his job?
- what is his character/personality like
- what does he carry into the war? why?
- what does he carry out of the war? why?
- who are his friends? how does he get along with the rest of Alpha Company? with Azar?    with O'Brien?
- does he have a back story? what is it? what is his future likely to be?


***If you do not see your last name listed under your class, that means you do not have a character; let me know--or assume you have the narrator/speaker, Tim O'Brien***
