Fishbowl make-up/addition

Hello,

We had a wonderful, far ranging discussing over One Hundred Years of Solitude in class today. For make-up, please offer your response/comments from one or more of the prompts distributed. If not an actual answer, it's certainly reasonable to offer questions and where you see the text leading us. . .

AP Lange

Hi all,

There are lots of sample exams available here, and I encourage your to nose around the rest of the site for the other gems hidden. I couldn't find any sample essay responses that were evaluated. There are additional articles here, which is on the teacher portal (I'm not sure if you there is public access or my account stuff was in cache). Included here is the "Preparing for the Synthesis" article we read today.

Good luck, I'm confident you'll do exceptionally well.
