Day 141

Objective:  The students will complete a MC Practice.

BUY CATCHER IN THE RYE by Monday.  Must have it in hand on Monday.

1.  I am done grading first period's Q3 Othello Essay and I am seriously perplexed by some of you.  I wonder what you have been listening to over the last 7 months.  Not me obviously.

Yesterday's prompt:

Many works of literature contain a character that intentionally deceives others.  This character's dishonestly may be intended to help or to hurt.  Such a character, for example, may choose to mislead others for personal safety, to spare someone's feelings, or to carry out a crime.

Choose a novel or play in which a character deceives other.  Then in a well written essay, analyze the motives for that character's deception and discuss how it contributes to the meaning of the work as a whole. 

Do not merely summarize.

2.  MC Practice:  "Getting Old"
