Last one standing

Attention lit students! Today, we have started our day with fun time of "final stand" a game where everyone stands up and last one to stand is the winner... (no way). So basically Mrs. Loconte was to ask us historical questions based on the recent chapter we read and if we don't answer, we have to sit down. Eventually, everyone "died off" except for Bethany and Rachel. In the end, they BOTH win and they get bonus mark as their prize! What a fun way to start our day! Rest of the class we read, "To the Ladies" by Lady Mary Chudleigh and analyzed her terrible marriage and her quite bold/rebellious characteristics of the poem. Then we compared this poem to the speech from "Taming the Shrewd" and mostly noticed the differences between these two literary works. "Taming the Shrewd" focused the point of  BEING obedient to husbands while "To the Ladies", it was rather vice versa.  Well we have no homework other than our essay due on Thursday! Make it good! 

Interesting fact: In "Edward Scissorhands", Johnny Depp only spoke 169 words in the complete movie.
