Today, we went over another question from your "15 Common Errors" exam. The discussion centred on sentence fragments. I brought up the allusion of Sesame Street ("On of These Things is not like the Other") to show that process of elimination and grouping has been with us since we began to investigate our environments. If you were not here, read up non sentence fragments in your booklet "15 Common Errors (#1)."
I then discussed some of the common themes present in the three short stories we have read. I am attaching the notes below.
I then handed out a copy of "How to Read a Poem." It is very similar to reading a short story. If you were not here, it is in your portfolio.
Finally, I handed out the poem "Sisters" by P.K. Page. You are to read and analyze it tonight. If you were not here, it is in your portfolio. It is a short reading, so come in before class and get it/read it.
Themes found in Ross' Stories
