Stokstad Books

Good Saturday morning, everyone!

Good news regarding the Stokstad books.  For those of you who do not have the 3rd edition, we will be collecting your texts and swapping them out for 3rd editions on Wednesday.  Two important things here...first, I need to know who NEEDS a 3rd edition so that I can go to the bookroom and make sure we've got plenty to cover everyone.  Secondly, you need to bring you current editions to class on Wednesday so that we can make the swap-a-roo that morning. 

For the weekend, go ahead and start your Greek chapter regardless of what edition you have.  You should start to read about the Geometric and Archaic periods first, as that will be the subject of our first assessment.  Please understand that this chapter is HUGE and is vitally important for your understanding of pretty much EVERYTHING that comes after it!  So take your time, read carefully, and take notes on what seems to be the main ideas.  Remember, read a section (a paragraph, a heading, it's up to you...) and only write down the important ideas, rather than every single detail.  We will fill in the details in class, so you need not write them down when you read!

Good luck, and once everyone is using the same edition, we will define the timeline of the readings a bit better.

Don't forget, your Sketchbook assignments will be due on Tuesday.  I'm looking forward to seeing them!  I have updated grades in the system as of Friday afternoon, so have a look and see how you're doing.  I will update again early next week with your new Q-card grades (HW and Quiz) and your Quiz from Friday.  Have a great holiday weekend!
