English 11

Make sure you have read "A Handful of Dates", on page 123 of your text, as we will be working on it tomorrow in class.  On Friday, you will have a quiz on the terms explained in the yellow short story handouts that I have given you so far.  The handouts I will ask you questions on are "Purpose and the Short Story", "Character and the Short Story" and "Plot and the Short Story".

The vocabulary words for "A Handful of Dates" are ewer, ablutions, indolent, lilting, gurgling, dilapidated, jostling, sickle, stance, bray and rasping.  You will have a quiz on these at a later date.
