Today we continued to focus on leads and introductions, as we took a brief quiz, which you can take at nearpod.com (PIN GZSYH), and continued to find the hook, bridge, summary, and thesis in the various lead technique examples we have been studying.
We then began practicing writing introductions in response to this prompt: Does Rainsford's killing of General Zaroff at the end of "The Most Dangerous Game" constitute murder? You were to write two separate leads for your essay, each one using a different lead technique that we studied (e.g. a background lead and an anecdote lead, or an analogy lead and a quote lead). You also needed to be sure to include each of the four elements of the introduction in your lead (hook, bridge, summary, and thesis). Both of your leads should be completed for class on Friday.
