Part III---"Racism and Predjudice" Regents Exam. Complete with multiple-choice questions intact. Pay special attention to controlling idea development and state it clearly in the introduction. This will be graded and well worth your time.

"moccasins..."
"We Wear the Mask"
"Ode to my Socks"
"hist whist"
A Folktale---maybe anecdotal
"Raven" 1 stanza
"Although I Conquer All the Earth"
Quote: Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born. Anais Nin
These parallel constructions will be bound in a book or presented in a pleasant way by the end of this marking period as well as the new ones we will cover in January. You are welcome to send my first drafts via email and I'll send back corrections over the vacation.
