To make this make sense: my freshmen are currently blogging as characters from The Iliad, to keep things fair and avoid fighting-because apparently everyone wanted to be Achilles-we drew for parts. This is comical in itself, as we have a male Helen and female Zeus, among others. In fact, the following quote was by one of my boys who drew Andromache, Hector's wife. Today, as he was trying to write a blog post about his "husband's" fighting during the chapters we read he goes....
Student 1: Well, who was my husband even fighting?
Me: Ask him if you can't remember.
Student 1 (Progressively louder): Husband, oh husband!! HUSBAND! HEY! HUSBAND! (Finally walks over to "husband") Oh, husband whom I love so much.
Well, at least they're getting into it. :)
