Shakespeare’s Sonnets–What did you find?

Today we’ll go through each of the sonnets I handed out. Clearly you’re “NOT HERE” today, but at home while we teachers are at school figuring out what to do about COVID19, and how to expel such a bad student. However, it’s still a good idea to listen to these readings, and as soon as I know what we’re doing, I’ll get back to you.

First we’ll listen to each sonnet read by someone who can really read it:

(Love Darth Vader reading Shakespeare. So cool. He has a voice like iron butter.)

HOMEWORK: Umm . . . stay tuned. We will be reading The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn which fortunately is online as regular and a translated version here. I imagine we’ll continue here on this website as we have been, but try to incorporate a “group chat” of some sort to keep up our discussions. I’d be a tiny bit heartbroken if I couldn’t listen to all of you argue about points in the reading. Seriously, those discussions are the high points of my day. We’ll figure this out.

As of right now, the College Board hasn’t said anything about changing the AP Exam dates, nor do I expect them to. We’ll keep plowing forward doing the best we can. I have complete faith it’ll all work out.
