Assignments for Wednesday, 2/11, and Friday, 2/13

Clarification: Complete the writing component of these assignments within forty minutes. This means you should write a full response within this allotted time. Do not "do as much as you can" within that time; strive to complete it within that time. 

For Wednesday, read Alice Walker, "Beauty: When the Other Dancer Is the Self," in 50 Essays, pp. 441-449.  Write a coherent and cohesive response to question 4.

For Friday, read Sarah Vowell, "Shooting Dad," in 50 Essays, pp. 433-440. Write a response to question 4. With this response, you do not need to compose an essay; you may list the humorous moments and explain them, and then include your hypothesis at the end.
