Thursday and Friday: Assignments

Here is what you will be doing while I'm at State with the cross country runners:

Thursday
READ “The Bet” – students should already have copies of this story in their possession as it was handed out on Wednesday.
On BLOGS –
Outline the plot. Pick out and explain on symbol. Pick out the type of conflict, the protagonist, antagonist and make an argument for each.
In two paragraphs connect the story to the themes of “The Meaning of Freedom” and “The Meaning of Home”.


Friday:
Vocabulary Quiz.
Begin studying for the Short Story Final by rereading short stories and looking over notes.
