Picture Day & Homework

Today in class students received a copy of "Incident" by Countee Cullen. It is HOMEWORK. Due next time in class. They should follow the directions on the top of the Poem of the Week, and also look at the poem we did in class called "There Will Come Soft Rains" by Sara Teasdale. Link here.

We also read the short story called "There Will Come Soft Rains" by Ray Bradbury. Students were asked to mark contrasts and contradictions, and they were asked to mark questions, items they wanted to talk about, and anything that seemed odd for 1950. We discussed part of the story today and will discuss more next time.
