--Make sure that you are reviewing your notes (e.g., Key Facts, Alexandre Dumas notes, Melodrama notes, character posters, Post-its, discussion notes, etc.), as Mr. Martin may "check in" on your knowledge and ask you to apply said knowledge at any time.
--While reading pages 406-466, work on character posters (if any of your characters "show up" in this section of the reading) and complete Post-its (focus especially on flagging seemingly important passages).
--As soon as Mr. Martin has approved your final project idea, you can get to work!
