Northern Antiquities,
English translation of the Prose Edda, 1847.
Painted by Oluf Olufsen Bagge.

Today we do battle. We slay monstrous questions and dragonish queries with the sword of truth. Be on your guard, and work quickly and completely. 

Agenda:

1. Pray
2. Weekly Latin Proverb: Ab una disce omnes.  
1. "From one, learn all." From Virgil's Aeneid (Book II, 65), this phrase reminds us that conformity unavoidable and that learning by example happens for good or ill. This relates to education is the sense that in spite of our "learning differences" we still need a standard to which we can look and model. Is not the inevitable effect of education? Even if you "differentiate instruction," the child still conforms to something, but the question is to what is he conforming?  
3. Finish Beowulf Exam
4. Begin Unit on King Alfred and The Ballad of the White Horse.
5. Review HW:
1. Be wise; be perfect.
