Important Note to Students

The HAMLIT assignment page is a convenience but not something to be dependent on. When possible, homework and reading assignments will be posted here, but you are expected to complete all assignments that are announced in class on time, regardless of whether they are posted online. If you are absent, or do not remember if there is an assignment, you will need to contact another member of class to verify what the assignment is. Neither I nor the site are responsible for your failure to complete this responsibility.

Quizzes and Columbus Day reading

Grammar quiz on Thursday. Here is a link to some more practice exercises. Click on the left for what you want to practice.

Your Columbus Day reading project will be due next Wednesday, 10/11.

Our question is: Should the United States celebrate Columbus Day as a holiday?

You will need to read the following passages in the WHITE BOOK!



198- Momaday
286- Image
291- Berliner
293- Mankiller
296- Connell

You will also be creating a chart (for turning in) that identifies quotations or supports for the texts that are in support of Columbus Day as a holiday, opposed to Columbus day as a holiday, and any other interesting ideas or thoughts that the passages generate for you.
