See handout for the reading and prompt for Short Essay #4.
Tomorrow you will have 45 minutes to type a response to this prompt in your daybook. You may take that essay with you and revise, to hand in Wednesday May 29. Doing it tomorrow while being timed is practice for the Assessment Essay in two weeks.
