English I students began working on their third topic in the short stories unit, this time on characterization. English 8 students, after some technical difficulties that I think I’ve finally solved, worked on their comprehension questions for Nightjohn after the article of the week.

Homework

• English 8 Studies: none.
• English I Honors: 
  • assess your assigned paragraphs;
  • complete the TS and get quote ideas for the CD for the paragraph we’re planning for “The Old Man on  the Bridge” (see class notes below).

Class Notes

Notes for the day's classes are available here.

Please note that this is a composite file including notes from all classes, though occasionally it might only be one or two classes. I don't differentiate in the file; that is up to you to do.
