Happy Valentine's Day Whatever!

1) My love is like a red, red rose... Blah! Sob, sob. Let's break up, instead.

 Are you up for The Break Up Tweet Challenge? Write a 126 character break up line. Let's write them all on the board. I'll submit the top ones. If you win, you can wrestle me for the ipod.

2) What thematic connections did you make across all four stories (and one poem)?

3) Our First Compare and Contrast Essay - 600 words


Compare and contrast a similar theme 
in two of the stories that we have read.

  • Plan with an outline first.
  • Develop a powerful thesis statement
  • Find three or four quotes (minimum) to use as support.  

DUE MONDAY - then, we can start a novel study!

Here is a great link over-viewing what I will present to you in class: http://www.nvcc.edu/home/ataormina/eng256/support/litcompare.htm
