UPDATE/CHANGE
Due to various factors (assemblies, fencing demonstrations, talkative teachers...), we did not finish the movie version (2011) of Jane Eyre on Friday. The big "impediment" to the grand romance was revealed, and we stopped where Jane runs away (which is where the movie started). We will finish the movie on MONDAY and the associated assignment is due on Tuesday, April 15, instead of Monday. 

Please have read Frankenstein (the 4 letters) for class on Monday and bring your book to class every day, just in case. Notice I have started posting relevant documents for the Frankenstein unit on the left.

Have a great weekend.
