English 8 Extra Credit Opportunity

Students were given an extra credit opportunity to begin the second nine weeks grading period. They are to write a Text Criticism on an article in their textbook. This criticism should be a lengthy paragraph (5-8 sentences), at least. The assignment states:

"O. Henry's short stories remain popular with readers in part because they often have surprise endings. Read the article "Manuscripts Found in an Attic" on page 62 of the textbook. What do you think the author means when he describes it as 'a story about O. Henry that was an O. Henry story itself'?"

This extra credit assignment will be due by November 8th, 2013.
