English 9 Class Notes

Objectives: Freshmen identified and explained character, plot, and irony in a short story.

We began and completed the story “Checkouts” today, the piece directly following “The Cask of Amontillado”. It was a change of pace and action from the Poe and Connell texts, and it was welcome, I think. As always I asked you to engage the text by summarizing, questioning, clarifying, connecting, evaluating, and predicting. We discussed your answers to several questions I asked you to attend while we read and listened to the narration and then I administered a brief check quiz.

There is homework, so check those details on your class page.

See you Friday.
