THURSDAY: This week most of us celebrated Halloween. We also learned about Dia de los Muertos. These two holidays offer some very different views on death. After reading the poems provided write your own poem or narrative that somehow addresses this theme. You might also think back to the readings we did on The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Tell Tale Heart, and The Raven.
