Friday February 17 break work





Make sure you have collected Sharon Draper's Tears of a Tiger from the library. This is not a "keep" novel, so must be returned after the break. If for some reason you did not, you'll need to get a copy from a city library or book store.


You will find this a very easy, quick read.  Your assignment, per the superintendent, is as follows:
 Students are to write a brief essay of 500 words in  response  to what they learned from the book. 
Think about both the characters and the plot. Use detailed information to support your reasoning. Include a MLA heading.  Although they are heading downtown, they will be graded with the usual expectations on style, content and language conventions. 
THIS IS D|UE THE MONDAY AFTER THE BREAK: February 27.
In class: vocabulary 9  Handout in class; there is a copy on Wednesday's blog.  This is due at the beginning of class on Tuesday February 28.
