Good Morning Scholars,

There is no class today due to professional development for ELA teachers. The work for today consists of three different versions of the classic Tall Tale "John Henry." After each selection there are several multiple choice questions for you to answer. Please create a new document that includes only your answers to the questions, because the worksheet is not editable. This assignment is due at 5:00 PM. Stay safe and have a blessed day.
