Make time to finish the novel. We read for 45 minutes during class today so you probably have about 20 pages to read at home. Be sure to have plenty of post-it notes for the last two chapters as you will discover Mowat's epiphany about the relationship between humans and wolves.
Wed and Thurs: You will complete the quotation log during class.

I will be looking for a strong, insightful, well-worded thesis and three clear body paragraph summary sentences, a compelling hook, and your ability to re-word the thesis in the final line of the introduction in an emotional and intriguing manner.
