3. “The Most Dangerous Game”
Today, we’re going to finish listening to the audio book of Richard Connell’s “The Most Dangerous Game.” The less you know about the story going in, the better!
As we read, keep an eye out for the quotes on your quote hunt handout! And yes, they are in order. 

4. “The Most Dangerous Game”
Time for another hunt! I’ve hidden eight different questions around the classroom. It is your job to find any FIVE of them and answer them before class is over.
As you find each question, be sure to write down your answers in the corresponding boxes on your handout.
The game is on. Good luck! 
Once you're finished, you can work on your IXL for the week: F.1 in the 10th grade language arts skills.
