Tuesday, January 25

We started class with some grammar work. Students completed the second side of the grammar worksheet we started yesterday.

We continued focusing on "character" in literature. We read the story "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty", about an everyday man whose mundane life causes him to frequently daydream about more exciting things. For example, he daydreams that he is a world famous surgeon or an airplane pilot during WWII.

We watched a film clip from the movie version of this story. It was really funny. We then discussed the differences and similarities between the two, and speculated why there were differences.
