Mrs. Purdie’s students at Poquoson Middle School are working in self-selected stations. Some are focusing on the fiction work of author Edgar Allan Poe, “The Tell-Tale Heart.” Others are reading a paired nonfiction article about the insanity defense. Later, they will use both passages for a persuasive writing prompt to ready them for their upcoming Writing SOL.
