Today we read this story by Stephen King.

All good.

Here are the questions

1.     So … what did the main character, Arthur, do for a living? What was his big moment?

2.     There are some references used in this story. Using whatever device you can, find out and then write out the definitions for these words:

River Styx, Monolith, scrofulous

3.     How does Richard end up being killed, anyway?

4.     Why does Arthur write that money for the space program should be spent elsewhere?

5.     The ending is kind of unclear – why is that sort of ending so disappointing to readers, do you think?

I also had to nag a few people about the choices of film for UHA4 and CA topics today. Again.

I did also start a copy of what was expected for UhA4 in front of everyone today, too. I'm using the film Plan 9 from Outer Space as my subject.
