For homework on Monday, Sept. 10th, please complete the outlines and the rough draft paragraphs for Encomium-Converse for the Maxim review lesson.  For the Paraphrase, write four variations of the maxim.  You will choose one of the four to include when you write the final draft and will add the transition sentence to it as you see in Aphthonius' models. 

Continue to memorize "The Road Not Taken", the definition of the virtue faith, and the definitions of the new vocabulary words.
