The students' next essay is based on A Christmas Carol. Students will be writing on which Christmas Spirit was the most influential in changing Scrooge's attitude toward Christmas.
Because we have just a few students who were unfamiliar with A Christmas Carol, I have been allowing them to watch it during lunch recess. Students may also research the story online to find story details to include in their essay.
