Short Stories, continued

This week we will be working on our student choice tasks in response to "The Monkey's Paw", which will be due by the end of the week (see previous blog post for the assignment).

We will read another story this week as well, "Click Clack the Rattlebag", and analyze it more by looking at character qualities and motivations.
