Objective:  The students will read and analyze their next story.

You have one week from today to get a copy of Grendel.  It doesn't have to be new.  It doesn't have to be any specific copy, it doesn't even have to be a book.  You just have to have a copy of Grendel that you can read and annotate. 

1.  Allusion/Symbol Notes:  Colors.

2.  Read "How I Met My Husband: and TTSTCANDI it.  We will do title and UT together before you read.
