In class, students discussed the elements of suspense in film and
writing. Students who missed class must complete homework in time to
participate in class tomorrow.
READ: "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson either online or pick up copy from desk in classroom.
Read
the story twice. On the first, read solely for entertainment purposes
and to follow the plot. On the second, take notes on specific lines from
the story or techniques the author uses to establish suspense. After
reading the second time and taking notes, write up to 1 paragraph
evaluating the effectiveness of the development of suspense in this
story.
All work on "The Lottery" due for Tuesday's
class. A second story will be distributed in class and posted here
Tuesday due in Thursday's class.
