Homework for tonight

Tonight, students need to write a “constructed response” answering the following question:

 

If a classmate of yours had been absent when we read “Lather and Nothing Else” in class, what would you tell him/her it was about?

 

This question is asking students to write a detailed SUMMARY of the short story we read together.  Summaries include title, author, main characters, main events, genre, and setting.  The answer should be in a full paragraph form, with an introduction, body, and conclusion.
