NO CLASS MONDAY 12/24/12! (RESEARCH DAY)

Dear Doomies,
This is a reminder that Monday, December 24th, 2012, is not an in-class day.  It is your research day for the third Omelas prompt.  You will have the morning off to research, watch, read (or sleep!) the creative work (short story, opera, ballet, film, tv show, song, poem, book, etc) that you feel relates to "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas."

By now, you should also have written about what you would do about the child in the cellar as a resident of or visitor to Omelas and what in your own observations or experiences reminds you of the story.

When we come back on December 26th, we will check our work and prepare for our Thursday field trip to MFAH.  Please start planning to arrive there instead of the classroom in the morning.

Should you have any comments, questions or concerns, feel free to comment here or email me at the address on your syllabus.

Enjoy your (extended) weekend!

  1. I believe the prompt on "MFAH Field Trip" does not necessarily need to follow the format Introduction, three- body paragraph, and conclusion right?
