HOMEWORK: Over the weekend, finish reading chapter 15 of Huckleberry Finn
HOMEWORK: Over the weekend finish your rough draft of the Garbage Man Essay. I recommend that you type it since the final draft (due next Thur/Fri) must be typed and it's very easy to revise a typed rough draft. In this draft of your paper, you may only argue for your candidate. In the final draft you will briefly discuss the other candidate, showing him to be an inferior choice, but this draft must be an argument focused solely on your candidate and what makes him a good choice for the position.

Discuss: Archetypes in the novel. Huck's death. The Hero Quest
Portrayal of Jim in the movie.

Prep debate
Write your Garbage Man Essay
Watch Dead Poets.

The importance of being a thinking person--the gullible judge

Huck Finn on Tape
Show Prezi: Inspiration for Huck Finn
Watch Dead Poets Society
Poems used in the film:
    Excerpts from all poems and literary references
