Monday/ Tuesday 7/8 October

Class began by reviewing the syllabus for the course, including the grading policy.

Next Mr. Zartler returned to students all of the "Personal History" essays that had been submitted. The "Personal History" essay is a required assignment. Students who received a "Not Yet" mark, or who have not turned the essay in yet, need to be attending Tutorial with Mr. Zartler.

Mr. Zartler went over common editing marks that students might see on returned papers.

Next the class examined the world of a hypothetical Irish person considering emigrating in 1865.

After considering this person's point of view, students wrote a brief first person account of what he or she would have been thinking.
