Bonus Point Opportunity for Of Mice and Men:
The following short-answer assignments are worth extra points. They do not need to be full-on literary essays, but do need to be well thought out and they do need to include textual support and parenthetical citation (in other words, good CDs). Focus on writing the “eight sentence paragraph” at least. As always, they must be typed in the correct format. Good luck!
