Hey, Walton

Second hour finished their review of vocabulary today, so that means you will have your quiz tomorrow. Meanwhile in fourth hour, you finished the last three words today, so that means you will have a review tomorrow.

The emphasis of class today was Robert Walton and his characterization in letter one. Our dashing, determined adventurer dreams of legendary feats in a world untouched by human interaction. Does that make him a Romantic dreamer or a hubristic fool? Only time will tell. Or, at least the interaction with a stranger, our darling Victor, will tell. For homework, you will complete characterization charts for letters 2-4 for Walton and Victor. If you were absent, draw a line down your notebook paper. On the right side, list a quotation from the text for Walton or Victor; on the left side, write analysis of character for each quote.
