Due to school cancellation, you all will be unable to retake your American Romanticism exam today in time to improve your grade before I must post grades by tomorrow. You all can retake the exam on Monday when I return. For today's NTI assignment, click on the button below to be taken to a YouTube video on the symbolism of Pearl in The Scarlet Letter. Watch the entire video and in complete sentences, answer the following questions: 1. Why do the townspeople see Pearl as a symbol for evil? 2. How is Pearl also a symbol for her the goodness her mother, Hester, can still achieve? I will not be here tomorrow, so you all will have a substitute. For tomorrow, I will leave links to YouTube videos to summarize the chapters you all have read so far.
