Earlier in this unit, you had some fun with a fairy tale or nursery rhyme. Now you will have more fun, but in a different way. First of all, do a web search for a very short story by James Thurber titled "The Little Girl and the Wolf." It is a spoof on the story of Little Red Riding Hood. Then do a web search for Fractured Fairy Tales, which are taken from an old cartoon show called Rocky and Bullwinkle. Now that you have gotten the idea, take a familiar story and write your own version on it. You can take away the fairy tale ending and replace it with a more realistic one, as Thurber did, or you can simply play with the story a little, as is done in the fractured fairy tales. You can choose to have a moral, as Thurber did, but it is not necessary. As you do this, keep two things especially in mind. These will be the most important factors in your grade. Use the techniques you have learned in this section to make the best possible word choices. Use conversation in your story. Go back to the Conventions unit to make sure you can use quotation marks correctly.

which statement best expresses the theme of this short story the value of being confused

the correct answer can either be a or b because it could be both but you should probally choose b

jeez la wheeze! i just checked other people who had the same question as you and both had terrible answers.

i hope i could be a little bit of a though!

hmm, lets see here. okay! so, i don't know the passages exactly since i haven't taken that quiz before, but! i will try to the best i can.

if you need on what igbo means, ill give you a hand.

igbo means a member of a people of southeastern nigeria.

so, they're asking you, "what passage uses igbo words or phrases and in at least 100 words, identify the kinds of context clues the author uses to hint at the words' meaning."

so basically, don't stress or over look this.

look closely at the passages and see if you can spot any of those hints! it doesn't have to be all, remember, its a quiz! no right or wrong answers.

the teachers are always there to and if you are struggling on this topic they will notice it in your score on the quiz and you.

(; i do hope this is useful to you!     < 3
