Goal: Develop a deeper understanding of the characters in "Cask of Amontillado" by doing a close reading of the first three paragraphs.

Agenda:
Read
Reading Progress Update
Close reading of "Cask of Amontillado," Section1

Reading Progress Update:
  • Complete the READING PROGRESS FORM about your current book, which should be #6. Update the list in your planner too. 

Close reading:
  1. Open your copy of "Cask of Amontillado."
  2. If you didn't make your own copy yesterday you can get a copy of the text here
I'll be using some slides in class to walk us through this process. I'll add them here later for your review. If you were absent please review THESE SLIDES. (You will need to be signed into your sandi.net account to view them.)

Reminders:
  • Read your book for 20-30 minutes. You should be almost 2/3 done about now.
  • If you did not complete the paragraph about irony and theme in "Possibility of Evil" from 2/5 you also need to complete that.
