English 8

Today we started off with silent reading, notes on pronouns, and notes on foreshadowing. We also watched the NFB video of "The Hockey Sweater", as we read the story yesterday.
We then read the play "The Monkey's Paw" as a class; thank you to my readers! After students completed questions, we watched the Simpsons adaptation of the story.

Reminders:

• 'Letter to Ms. Jones' (plan, draft, peer edit, and good copy): due Wednesday, Feb. 17, 2016
• "The Monkey's Paw" worksheet: Wednesday, Feb. 17, 2016
