Today I handed back our quiz/paragraph on The Bicycle -- some students have been asked to REDO the paragraph for a higher grade.
We learned from Mr. Pfeiffer's nephew, Dennis, how to write a literary paragraph (yellow handout was distributed).
Then students were given their first bit of literary writing: In paragraph form and with reference to the story, discuss the character of Tante Rose in "The Bicycle".
Students are reminded to follow Dennis's example and notes. Good copy should be in ink. This will be due, likely, on Friday of this week.
