Create a quiz...

Content and vocab quiz will be tomorrow...

Seven chapters...

If your question is good enough, I'll use it.

Multiple Choice questions...Choices A through E

Vocabulary...
Write a fill in the blank sentence with enough context clues to allow students to choose the correct word.  Wherever possible, embed Scarlet Letter or modern allusions as mnemonic devices to help the words stick.
