Runes Noticeboard
 

Outside the Ancient Runes classroom there is a noticeboard. This isn't anything special, its simply where you'll find announcements about class scheduling, homework or other relevant information about Ancient Runes.

The first Ancient Runes lesson of the term will open at approximately 7am GMT on Monday 10th Jan (8pm Monday my time) and will begin properly about 12 or so hours after that.

Ancient Runes Homework:

X Please head up your homework with your username, member number, house, character name and year.

X Please include the questions as headings and provide your answers beneath the appropriate question.

X Please don't hurt your brain by overdoing things; if it asks for a sentence, give a sentence, if it asks for a paragraph, give a paragraph. You're welcome to do more but you won't get any points for it. Also take note of the points assigned to that question. If its weighted at one point the answer only needs to be simple. The more points assigned to the question, the more detailed your answer needs to be.

X Please list your references and links to your sources where possible.

X Some of these questions may relate to the associated lesson lesson, while others are preparation for the next.

X Homework should, as usual, be PMd to me Con_Stripes before the due date.

X Extra credit IS available... but I'm not telling you how to get it. ;)

Ancient Runes Homework 2
The three questions you wrote in class will serve as your homework. Answer each question as best you can and provide your references. If you did not complete three questions in class you can still submit this homework. Remember the three questions need to be based on the quiz questions that Truebridge asked in class and on the topic of Norse Mythology and the relationship with Runes.
