This week we read and discussed stories that focused on First Person Minor Character and included at least three of the words Update, Set, Forest, Square.

We read "The Lottery" by Anton Chekhov to talk about Dramatic Irony, which is the challenge for this week.

Next week's words are Sting, Folklore, Policy, Legislature.
