English I Honors students had a breakthrough with “The Cask of Amontillado.” From these small points, which they determined with a bit of guidance,

students came to a whole new understanding of the story: it’s a confession to a priest! Tomorrow we’ll look at how point of view affects that and start our new paragraph.

English 8 students finished up chapter 2 of Nightjohn. We’ll be looking at theme tomorrow.

Homework

• English 8 Studies: none.
• English I Honors: 
  • review the online submissions and assessments from the first paragraph (about “Dangerous Game” or “Harrison “Bergeron”) and pay attention to the differences between my assessments and your assessments;
  • revisit the “Thank You, Ma’am” assessments to make final adjustments before we finalize the assignment.
