Today students picked up the next text set for comparative analysis. The texts consist of Annie Dillard's, Death of A Moth, Virgina Woolf's, Death of a Moth, and Loren Eiseley's, The Brown Wasps. You can probably find them on line.
So first, vocab study. Find the word in the text. Put a box around it. Write out the definition.
Here are the words. They were due at the end of the hour today. We'll be having a narrative quiz on this vocabulary on October 22.
