Welcome back! I hope you all had a nice, surprise 3-day weekend!

Here's an overview of the week ahead:

-We will introduce and work with a set of vocabulary words this week; these words come from a short story we will read mid-week to kick off our Short Stories Unit. The words and their definitions are attached below.

-We will finish up our work with the Touchstone and discuss major concerns as a class.

-We will take the first of two pre-tests to determine which concepts we need to focus on and reinforce this semester.

-We will read the short story "The Far and The Near" by Thomas Wolfe, and we will work on a reading guide and a follow-up narrative to supplement our reading. The necessary text and worksheets are attached below.
