Katya is continuing to work on her puppy mill essay. The introduction uses the strategy of background information, one of eight we are studying and will be using. The body paragraphs are developed in a pattern that fits the topic and intended audience -- we are preparing to submit this to the newspaper opinion page to elicit support in behalf of mistreated dogs in mills. Katya should bring the first rough draft on Tuesday, and we will look at newspaper guidelines. We added to her vocabulary and she is preparing for a test. Katya took notes on antihero from a great resource on CPalms. We watched a video, and she scored 100 on an antihero quiz. We then went deeper into antihero literature and film.
