There has been a little change in the schedule. We will be doing the district assessment on literary analysis on Wednesday and Thursday of this week. Don't worry - this is something we have done before; remember the ROMEO AND JULIET essay? It's going to be like that with citations. The assessment will include reading two short stories, writing a literary essay comparing and contrasting the two short stories, and reading and answering multiple choice questions. Then on Friday we will go back to reading our books, which we will finish next week.
