Happy Valentine's Day
Today we had a quiz on the first set of terms. We then did a second close reading exercise that looked at how we infer details about characters from the descriptions given by the author. The one we did had a selection from Of Mice and Men and Birdman. These were mostly completed in class but should be done by Monday. Please also read "The Metaphor" for Monday. Be prepared for a little quiz on the story.

Bonus: This is just for fun. See if you can get more than 8 on your first try.
