Wow it is Friday already. As I promised no homework, but I recommend that you spend a lot of time on the annotated bibliography.

You do not need to write out the answers, but you should be very familiar with the answers to the six questions.

Please review pages 24-47, paying attention to questions 3-8 on the review sheet. There will be a quiz on the 12 Olympians tomorrow.

In Mythology, review pages 48-77 and study the questions on the review sheet. Remember there may be a quiz any day.
