Today in Sr. Salma's English class, there was a spelling test for lesson 29. We took the test, and corrected it in class. Then, we went over all of Act 3's comprehension questions until the end of class. Regarding the point to ponder, we were not able to complete that in class, so instead it was homework. The prompt can be found in your Prentice Hall Literature book on page 813, under the subtitle "Timed Writing: Interpretation (connection)". That is what we did in Sr. Salma's class today.
