"The Tell-Tale Heart", Edgar Allan Poe

"Lamb to the Slaughter", Roald Dahl

"The Lottery", Shirley Jackson

If you received a letter regarding your summer reading assignment extension, those letters must be signed and returned TOMORROW, or the extension will not be given.  Please review those letters with your parents tonight.

If you don't have that letter, you submitted your summer reading on time!  Well done!  No homework for you!  :-)

Tomorrow, we begin reviewing story elements, and learning some about Freitag's Pyramid.  I look forward to some learnin' tomorrow!  See you then.

Until,
Ms. Bellon
