Since last week, students have completed Parts of Speech exercises, and have studied two short stories. Last week, we discussed "Lamb to the Slaughter" and completed a 'Plot Analysis' worksheet. We also read an article about the rules for housewives in the 1950's to better understand Mary Malony's character. Today, we finished a short film adaptation of the story and students wrote a paragraph explaining which version of the story they preferred and why (story version vs. film version). We then read the story "Gore" from Sightlines 9.
Reminders:
- Letters/Personal Credos: OVERDUE
- "Lamb to the Slaughter" questions: due today!
- Paragraph on "Lamb to the Slaughter": due tomorrow, Sept. 15, 2015
