Welcome to Stroud's House
Welcome to my class website. It's not exactly MySpace, but I hope you'll stick around for a little while.
If you are reading this you are:
a. a student in one of my two sections of British literature;
b. a member of the staff of Aplomado, Pebblebrook High School's yearbook;
c. a member of the staff of BrookSpeak, Pebblebrook High School's student newspaper;
d. very bored and the type of person who enjoys reading class blogs for entertainment.
I hope you'll explore what is here and let me know what's missing. I want this site to be more than a list of stuff for you to do. I hope this site can be a place where we can have a dialogue and you can come whenever you need help. You'll find calendars, assignments, links, handouts and tutorials on this site, and eventually you'll be authoring your own blog here.
In fact, let's start the dialogue right now! Below this post, you'll find a place where you can leave a comment. I'll refrain from giving you some lame writing prompt (we'll save those for the writing portion of the GHSGT), so feel free to express yourself in your own way (please note that I read this stuff to my 2-year-old son and I don't want him learning some of your favorite words), but remember the old cliché, "you only get one chance to make a first impression." Try to spell your name correctly.
