Overview from 10/6 and Assignment due by 10/13

Today we discussed the complicated text that was "Trifles". Once students were able to understand the details that led to confusion, I gave them their assignment for next week:

DUE by 10/13 via digital submission:

Students are to think of ONE thesis statement that covers all three of the texts we have read so far ("Lamb to the Slaughter," "The Story of an Hour," and "Trifles") and write a formal essay explaining how their thesis fits for each text.

Format:
Introduction (introduce the texts and thesis)
Body (at least 3 paragraphs...one per story, but you can do more if needed)
Conclusion...wrap it all up.

This should be submitted before students show up for their test on the morning of 10/13.

Email with questions if needed!
