That was the (seemingly random) question of the day. But the purpose behind it was that both the Anglo-Saxon and Medieval units of literary study rely heavily on their respective culture's notions of "the heroic ideal." We spent a fairly casual Friday discussing possible modern heroes, and tried to establish the traits/characteristics/qualities we value in those we most admire.
There is no specific homework to do over Labor Day week-end, but do recall that the Self-Definition assignment is due on Wednesday. So you could spend a bit of time on that. Otherwise, enjoy the PNW outdoors, Bumbershoot, the start of football season, or whatever else makes you happy.
New news--just now on my school e-mail: You will be receiving your planners in English class on Tuesday, Sept. 7.
