Dear Juniors,

If you missed class, we completed the following:

1. Each student submitted their three body paragraphs in relationship to questions developed for chapters 1-3 of Turn of the Screw.  Everyone indicated that they felt their writing was improving, but that they still needed assistance with topic sentences. We will continue to work on topic sentences.

2. Students were then introduced to a group assignment involving Turn of the Screw. Each group randomly selected three chapters from the novella that they in turn were assigned to teach  the class. Hector and Pavel, you were absent when this was assigned, and I am having a hard time loading the PDF for the file, so when I see you on Tuesday, you can collect the handout. The students that were assigned chapters 4-6 and 7-9 will be presenting on Tuesday, so you can observe their presentations. Please plan on staying after class, so we can discuss your assignment.

HOMEWORK:
Please read chapters 4-6 and 7-9 of Turn of the Screw. Develop questions for both sets of chapters for Tuesday.
