Reading and Writing due for 10-17 class

READING:
Review the description of close reading from the first post.
Continue close reading through the end of chapter 15.

WRITING:
Write a one page scene (300-500 words) that takes place in the same territory we have come to know through reading the first chapters of the book. You may write in third person or in first person, but if you choose first person, use a character we have met other than Huck. You may use a very familiar character or a nearly completely undeveloped character if you wish, e.g. someone on the raft that Jim uses to float down river. Dialogue is optional. You may re-write a scene that we have already experienced, but from another viewpoint, or you may create your own scene that is concurrent with some part of the story we've experienced so far.
