Greetings, Seniors!

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to our class blog. The theme for our class will be the art of storytelling.
This is a place where all senior honors classes will be able to exchange ideas, ask questions, continue classroom discussions, partake in debates, and, perhaps, benefit in ways that I have not anticipated. Notice the additional forum "Cyber Cafe" which is just there for cool comments, links to relevant lyrics or You Tube videos, discussions of films, etc.

The intent for this is to develop a cross-class connection, encourage meaningful discussions of literature and life, and contribute to a reading community.

Each post should not be an isolated comment but part of a discussion. As you post, I want you to consider and directly reference previous posts and class discussions. I do not want you to list or catalog your own interpretations but rather feed off one another and partake in debates and informed discussions of the texts we read and the questions about life, society, humanity, or current events that seem relevant and interesting in relation to the readings.

Please read the directions for the Summer Reading Assignment in the adjacent page before continuing.

Best, 
Mrs. Fotinatos
