Despite what I told you in class on June 3rd, I have decided to keep with the original plan for your grades. The mid-term is worth 25 points, the final test is worth 25 points, and your two homework assignments are worth 25 points each. Please use the worksheet below for your assignments.

If there is any time after finishing the units on Langston Hughes and Second Language Acquisition, we will practice listening to TED Talks in class. The download for this exercise is below.
