Block day: Read chapters 19 and 20 of The Catcher in the Rye
Friday: Chapters 21-23 of The Catcher in the Rye. Work on voice piece for Tuesday.
Voice assignment:

In this piece, you are Holden. (Sit with that idea for a moment!) Write a goodbye note to Gorham High School, commenting on all the things you think Holden would notice. This can include things that would drive Holden crazy and the things you think he might secretly like. Look at the book and think about phrases you could use to imitate his voice.
