--Pick up the first part of the "'The Masque of the Red Death' Assessment" from the front table. Complete this part of the assessment quietly and independently back at your desk. When you finish with this part, turn it in at the front and pick up the next part. Continue in this manner until you have completed the assessment. (I'll be honest--I have no idea how long it will take you to finish the entire assessment.) I'll give you as much time as you need today, though. Good luck!
--When you finish the last part of the assessment, come up to the front table and...
- place your assessment in the black basket
- take out something to work on for the remainder of the class block (e.g., Membean training on your electronic device, drafting of your short story, etc.).
