English Home Work for Wednesday, 11/14/2007

Class One: Read "Moving Big Stuff" and answer the questions at the end of the article.

Class Two: In a well developed, multi -paragraph essay, explain why Mrs. Mallard's death is such a tragedy.

Class Five: In a well developed, multi-paragraph essay, explain the significance of the title of Hemingway's short story "Soldier's Home."

Class Six: You are among the original Pilgrims. Create a five entry journal describing your last day in England (why you have chosen to embark on such a dangerous voyage), your time at sea (one entry), your first few days at Plimoth (two entries that describe your relationship with Native Americans and the type of government that you establish[mention the Mayflower compact]), and a final entry of your chosing (maybe you've decided to return to England).

The journal is due this Friday whether you go on the field trip or not.

Remember that report cards will be given out in home room Wednesday AM.

And please-we would like to meet your parents or guardians next week. We have plenty of time available both on Monday and Tuesday.
