"Analyzing Relationships"
1. Develop a claim (thesis) about Huck and Jim's relationship.
2. Use the guiding questions on page 15 in your study packet to help you.
3. Find evidence to support your claim from the novel.
4. Write a mini-essay to prove your point (about 3 paragraphs)
Occasionally, I will put helpful resources on here for you. But the majority of our class will be conducted on Schoology.

Grades
The grades posted are NOT your final grades. But I wanted you to have an idea of where you are going into the final. Remember that the final is 15% of your grade. I also need to finish grading and recording the Fahrenheit Essays.
