For Thurs/Fri, I want you to annotate the passage taken from chapter 6 that you have been given. As you are annotating, look for:

• connections to what you have learned in US History
• Twain’s philosophical position based on Pap’s words
• example of satire-elements of humor and for what purpose?
• what aspect of the 1800 society is represented through Pap?

When finished, turn it over and write a 250 word response to the selection and compose ONE multiple choice question about the passage, complete with 3 wrong answers and 1 right, circled.
