DAY 4 - CYCLE 14 - SEMESTER 2

Notes are on the wikispace for today's class, in which we talked about Huck's growing appreciation for Jim's situation and his own sense of moral agency (i.e. responsibility to and for others). He is clearly making the transition from being self-preserving to being self-sacrificing, and we like him more for it. Where are YOU on the scale? Are you more advanced than Huck?




We'll work on our T-Shirts in Friday's class. Try diagramming your sentences to speed your efforts. Some links to help you:
The author's website with LOTS of sample diagrams
More easy to follow examples.
How to diagram "See Spot run" (more complicated than you think).
Most basics covered here; see esp. slides 7 & 10

Please read up through 275 for tomorrow. While we will not discuss the book, please remember that you must have all of the Steinbeck novel read for Tuesday, and I want you to parse out your time accordingly.
