Work for Tuesday 3 March 2015

World Literature:  The Odyssey  Complete Books 19-20-21 .  Read and do questions in workbook.  I will go over the first test in class to insure you know the answers.  This is so you will know how to do test three.


World Geography: In your student Workbook, complete Albania p.81, The Balkans p.82.  Make sure the whole European Map is identified


This is what your essay will be ( You do not have to do it for Tuesday!).  Select Three Countries you found interesting, whether the Book did them or not (for me the Russian Oblast) and would like to visit (if money were no object).   Write  about each of them and the city or region you would visit and why as well as what would you hope to see there.  If this is unclear, I will explain in class.
