The below section explains expectations for each week and either specifies the particular edition(s) that should be read or indicates that material will be provided in the form of class handouts in the course pack.

7 Lessons for Teachers from Dumbledore
One of my favorite times of the day is when I settle in with my two young daughters for read-aloud time. For several years, we have been working our way through the Harry Potter series. I had read them all before, but it has been a delight to read them again with my girls, using as many voices as possible, and seeing the incredible story through their eyes. It has also shared many secrets about teaching and living with me on this second reading, especially when it comes to Dumbledore. "You do care," said Dumbledore. Calm Acceptance: No matter what Dumbledore is faced with, he calmly accepts this reality. "I don't mean to be rude -" he [Vernon] began, in a tone that threatened rudeness in every syllable. "- yet, sadly, accidental rudeness occurs alarmingly often," Dumbledore finished the sentence gravely. Kindness in the Face of Rudeness: The Dursleys (Harry’s relatives) are mean, spiteful and rude to Harry and Dumbledore. “Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Being Brave: It may be hard.
Of Moose and Men: Analyzing Canadian Humor
Is the very concept of “Canadian humor” an oxymoron? As they say in Canada: possibly, or possibly not. Canada’s history lacks the violent frontier mythology that continues to fuel the folk hoax of rugged individualism so central to the American identity. Thus, a strong case can be made that life in unrestive, uncomplicated, unconfrontational Canada is altogether too relentlessly nice for humor to flourish. “Canadian humor”—does it even exist? Theory 1: There are actually funny Canadians alive today, but all nine of them moved to the U.S.A., and once they got here they renounced their Canadian cultural heritage, the way Mick Jagger renounced his English accent. Theory 2: A distinctive Canadian humor style never had a chance. Q: How do you get 26 Canadians out of a swimming pool? A: Yell, “Everybody out of the pool!” Satire also suits the shy Canadian temperament: you can savage your victim while masked in somebody else’s identity. ***Not aggressive?

The Landlady
About this BritLit kit Billy Weaver, a young man visiting the City of Bath for the first time, is looking for accommodation. He is inexplicably drawn to a house where the landlady seems to be expecting him. The house and the landlady seem friendly and welcoming, and he looks forward to staying there. Signing the guest book, two names disturb him. Where has he heard them before? The themes drawn from this story include poisoning, embalming and taxidermy as well as a look at witches. The kit, originally written in 2003, was updated in 2007 and 2013. You can also listen to the audio included in the attachments below. How to use this BritLit kit The material is divided into three sections: Pre-reading, After reading, and Word Work. Landlady Pre-reading (pdf) examines who Billy and the landlady are and asks the students to speculate on what they might look like.
Is Canada more than not America?
“Do Canadians identify themselves as anything other than not being American?” What a question! It came from Greg in Chicago. He travels every summer to his family cottage near Kingston. He often encounters Canadians who, upon learning he is American, assault him with how Canada is not like the U.S. Better health care, same-sex marriage, fewer guns, etc. So, upon learning I am Canadian, he asked the question. It struck a chord with me immediately. For instance, I believe there are ways we can improve our health care system. But every single time I bring it up on Newstalk1010, I am flooded with calls and e-mails angrily denouncing the American system, explaining how much better we are. Listeners cannot stop themselves from loudly announcing their un-American status, despite my never having brought up the American system at all. Is it a national dysfunction; an inferiority complex? European nations have a long history from which to draw their culture and heritage; their national identity. J.
