Scheduled Readings

Due Date: Friday, November 29th 
Value: 45 points

You will have the task of reading the following stories:

        "I Won't Let the Nazis Take Me!"   page 1
    
         "Run! Run for Your Lives!"           page 131

These stories will be discussed in class (not read). They will also be included in the test.

After you read each story, write a reaction and post it on the blog. You will have two separate posts.
Your responses should be each at least 7 sentences long. You will also post a comment on one of your peers' posts. This comment should be at least 4 sentences long.  Please give thought to these posts. I will be evaluating each post using the following criteria:

organization                       5 pts.
voice                                 5 pts.
spelling and mechanics       5 pts.

I would like to see a reply to each of the students of the group. Sooooooo, if you have to choose between #1 someone who has 1 or more comments and #2 someone who has 0 comments, I suggest that you post a comment on the second choice.  You can post additional comments.
