Day 89!

Happy Friday! Whew, it has been a LONG week. :)

We will finish up talking about some background information about Southern Gothic literature first thing today, and then we will move on to our next author, William Faulkner! We will spend some time researching as we have done in the past using this notes sheet click ----> HERE to access the notes sheet! Make a copy of the document and do some research with a partner to fill it out. We will get back together after about 15-20 minutes to discuss what we have found.

THEN, we will move on to our next story, "A Rose for Emily". Yay!!

"A Rose for Emily" can be found on page 817 of your books. As we are reading, notice details that reveal other people's perceptions of Miss Emily and her family. Doing so will help you consider the question "How does literature shape or reflect society?"
