Poe turned 200 on 1-19-2009, and in cities across the Eastern Seaboard, from Boston to Richmond, VA, a celebration has begun. My students are reading a few of his poems and a couple of his stories this week. Annabell Lee, The Cask of Amontillado, and The Bells will round out our selections. We will even do a quick "Tell-tale Heart" to add to the great selections.
Next week we will begin reading Killer Angels, as students study a history of Pennsylvania and the Civil War. Wow...
