This week we worked on taking a close reading of "The Leaving", a short story by Budge Wilson. We read the story with a close eye for character development and inference, highlighting evidence of each.
Activity 1: Return to the highlighted sections of the story and record the quotes where meaning has been inferred. Record what question you might ask of that quote, and finally record what you think the author was trying to infer.
