Read "Living Like Weasels" essay (handout).
Write 1 page informal response to turn in (your response should be typed, double spaced, 11-12 pt font, standard margins, Times new Roman, or other usual font)
Prompt: Rather than me giving you a discussion question to answer, try to formulate 2-3 "most interesting" questions you have about the Dillard essay. Explain WHAT these questions are, WHY you were led to ask them, and also WHY they are so interesting. Include and analyze specific quotations and examples in your response. Due in hard-copy, next class meeting.
Come to class with both textbooks: Back to the Lake & Little Seagull handbook
Read over syllabus. Write down and be ready to ask 3 questions you have about it.
Send me an email (jchristian@westfield.ma.edu) from your preferred email address in which you briefly introduce yourself. This also provides me with a way to contact you over the course of the semester.
