We will continue working with word choice and connotation and looking at the impact these elements have on mood, tone, and author's purpose. Any homework will be posted here at the end of each class period.

Wednesday HW: Finish "Analyze the Text" on page 18 if not finished in class. Each response must be supported with evidence from the text.
