HOW DO THE DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEWS (Burglar, homeowner, real estate agent, visitor) affect the way the story is described?

Answer this in AT LEAST HALF OF A PAGE!

Tech Assignment 11-20

Hola,

Your assignment today is a PRE ASSIGNMENT for one we will do later in the week. For that assignment, you will need to be REALLY familiar with a fairy tale. You will know why later today.

So, I would like all of you to go to THIS WEBSITE

There are 9 SHORT summaries of popular fairy tales. Pick 2 or 3 and read them so you get a better understanding of them. Remember, if you choose NOT to read them, then no complaining later on in the week when I ask you about specific fairy tales and you don't know anything...

Once you are done reading them, you are free to browse the internet. All I need you to do is read these. It should take you 15 minutes. The rest of the time is yours.

Veteran's Day hw


In class today, you watched clips of a movie about the American Revolution. You were supposed to take some notes and write down interesting things that caught your eye.

For homework, I want you to write a response about what you saw. Did war look like how you imagined it to look as we read "Guns for Gen Washington"? What is interesting to you?

This is an extended response, so it shouldnt be LESS THAN HALF A PAGE. The more you write, the better though.

Have a good weekend and see you on Tuesday!
