Should Teens read The Canterbury Tales? Why or Why Not?

Based on your readings in Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales and our discussions in class, explain your answer to the above question using personal commentary, text references, and references to dicussion in class. Please use your school gmail account to post. Once you have responded to this question, go back and read through your peer's posts. Comment on at least two of your peer's comments. Be professional in your personal commentary, you will receive 5 points for your comment, and an additional 5 points for each response made to a peer. Total 15 points

* You must set up your own google account to post. Please create a student google account that has a username that is recognizable. I suggest you use first name and last letter initial and a number that is important to you, or first initial and last name and a number that is important to you. I would not use both names in my username for security reasons. Use this account for student/professional reasons. We will be using our google accounts throughout the year.
