Goeffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales in 2022

Mrs. Cathy Edmonds' Honors English 11 - British Literature students participated in speed dating to better acquaint themselves with the characters from Goeffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. This was a fun review for a quiz they will take this week. Each student was assigned a character and on their date they asked questions to attempt to identify the character they were dating.
