Freshmen:
We read "The Lady, or the Tiger?" together and discussed its lack of resolution. (Frustrating, isn't it?) Then you added Point of View, First Person, Limited Third Person and Omniscient Third Person to your list of literary terms.
HW: Read "The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World" (see the link on the right) and complete the worksheet that goes along with it. Due tomorrow.

AP Lit:
Re-read together and discussed "The Cask of Amontillado." (Poe is a genius at using irony and sound devices to infuse humor and suspense. So twisted!)
HW:
for Wed.: "Hills Like White Elephants"
for Thurs: read "Why I Live at the P.O."
for Fri: describe the characters of "P.O" using as many of the terms given in class on Thurs. as possible.
for Mon: read "Bartleby, the Scrivener."
