Homework: October 24

English 11 (A block and G block)

  • Finish reading "The Things They Carried" and write a 1-2 paragraph response to the question below, using the story as your text. (Don't answer it with personal examples--you've already done that! Instead, use "The Things They Carried.")
    • Here's the question: What do we carry with us, and how does that weight affect us?
