Today, we looked at sentence fragments and run-on sentences. We then read and discussed "Lather, And Nothing Else" in
Sightlines 10. I gave a bit of background of
La Vilolencia period in Columbia to explain the story's context. We worked on the comprehension questions as a class, and then students had to find 3 character traits and quotations for both the characters in the story.
