First off - game prediction: Faculty 101, Students 36...

Second, today we finished To Kill a Mockingbird and did some preparation for tomorrow's seminar, which you can do at home if you were not here. The prompt was to formulate 7 questions or comments with specific page references related to how the following literary elements are used in the novel: theme, characterization, setting, plot, conflict, ideas or topics, irony, symbolism, or anything else you need clarified.

Extra credit option: Write a poem about an event in To Kill a Mockingbird from the perspective of a specific character. Don't identify explicitly whose point of view you're writing from, but it should be clear from the voice and content of the poem. It must be typed and adhere to standard poetic form, and must be handed in by Monday. You can earn up to 25 points extra credit.
