"The Bass, the River, and Sheila Mant" par III; AWAA, continued

10R
  • Checked HW while sentence combining activity was done.
  • Discussed the rest of the story in terms of conflict. Students were reminded of the primary focus of the other two stories (irony and foreshadowing repectively for "A Story of an Hour" and "The Monkey's Paw."), and that these concepts will be central to the exam on these stories on Monday.
  • HW: Summary rewrite. Students were told that this will be worth a 40 point minor grade. Tomorrow, we will be in the computer lab for a final rewrite focusing on sentence combining. This will be for a major grade. Note: any vocabulary word used correctly and underlined will be worth one extra credit point.
