With school closed, what have been the best and worst parts about having no school for an extended period of time? List specific pros(3) and cons(3) and explain what’s good or bad about each one.

(Cons) Its been really difficult to stay focused on school. I haven't gotten to see any school friends except over the phone. I also can't get help from the teachers as easily now.

(Pros) When I can stay focused I don't have to wait on the rest of the class and can move on to the next class. I get to be with my dog while doing school and have snacks whenever I want. I also don't have to have school lunch :)

"the monkey's paw" is a rare story in that the theme is actually stated in the story. sgt. maj. morris tells the whites that the old fakir who put the spell on the paw said, "fate rules people's lives and those who interfere with fate do so to their sorrow." the message is a warning, but mr. white doesn't believe it. even though sgt. maj. morris makes it clear that he tried wishing with unfortunate results and he tries to throw the paw on the fire,   mr. white makes a wish for 200 pounds only to find that he receives the money when herbert dies in a factory accident. according to the fakir, then, because mr. white had wished for something he should not have had, his son lost his life.

the second wish that mrs. white encourages him to make is for herbert's return--one week after his death. when the strange knocking begins at the door during the windy night, mr. white panicks, believing that the previously dead but still mangled herbert could have walked home from the cemetary and is now at the door. because he fears what his wife will find if she opens the door, mr. white makes his third wish--for the noise to stop.

therefore, he uses his three wishes and to his sorrow, loses his son and disappoints his wife, who fervently believed that their son was at the door. she wanted him back, regardless of his condition.
