Students worked on rewriting their first scenes for their short stories and writing their second scenes.
HISTORY
Student groups continued to develop their storytelling presentations.
ENGLISH
We discussed Screwtape Letter #3. This letter reveals Wormwood's strategies for stirring up pride and conflict between the patient and his mother. It shows us some of the temptations we face with our own family members (or those individuals with whom we are closest). Screwtape advises Wormwood to stir up a "good settled habit of mutual annoyance; daily pinpricks" (Lewis 11). Students identified (privately) a person with whom they may have a tense or contentious relationship. Then they identified which of Wormwood's strategies is most often used against them. Students also identified a key phrase from Screwtape's letter that best encapsulates the strategy.
Students began writing their first Angel letter. They will have additional time during class tomorrow to finish; the letter will be due at the end of class tomorrow.
