Thursday Afternoon

Thank you to Mrs. Mc Nair for helping us in class.

No vocabulary this week.
I will be reading your papers and I will return them for revision.

Literature: Read  "A Voyage to Lilliput" from Gulliver's Travels.
Watch for these things as you read:

1. Why did Gulliver take his trip?
2. Who did he meet on the way?
3. What obstacles did he encounter?
4. What do think Swift was saying about the "egg cracking" dispute?

Research Jonathan Swift this week. Please be ready to discuss his family background and his politics.
Was he successful during his lifetime?
Was he influential with his writing?
Did he influence change with his writing?
