Saturday Morning Short Story

Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | Sat | Smith Memorial Library Classroom | Ages 15+

The short story, a 180-year-old genre, has works of great power and resonance. Students read a different short story for each week. There will be guided discussions of the stories, using Socratic questioning techniques so that each student will emerge with an enriched reading of the story. Each story will be available at the Smith Memorial Library circulation desk.
