February 11

Today we watched a short video about how to write a good compare and contrast essay. After this there was time to work on the assignment from Friday which was to compare the animated version of Tell Tale Heart to the more straightforward presentation. A copy of the text of the story was also handed out. This is available on the short story page of my website if you need it. Finally, I gave out the next assignment which is to write a 2-3 paragraph composition comparing Tell Tale Heart to Blue Boots. You must decide which narrator is scarier.
Tomorrow you must have an edited rough copy of the comparison between the video versions and a rough copy of your comparison between TTH and Blue Boots. Make sure you email me your scavenger hunt if you haven't already done so.
