Hunter completed some online grammar practice. We also read through a lesson on grammar on Quizlet. Hunter put this new knowledge to work in editing his O.J. Simpson essay. He completed this and produced a decent final version, althought completely factual and objective. We discussed the next essay topic and will attempt more figurative language and subjectivity. He began reading "The Lottery" and took it home to continue. He is to write an alternative ending, answer discussion questions, and consider foreshadowing and irony while reading. He will also finish reading the assigned portion of "The Book Thief" before our next class.
