Short Story: "The Sniper"

Background:

This story is set in Dublin, Ireland, in the 1920s, during a time of bitter civil war. On one side were the Republicans. On the other side were the Free Staters. 

Like all civil wars, this one tore families apart. It pitted children against parents, sister against sister, brother against brother. 

As the story opens, the writer immediately puts you into the war—high on a Dublin rooftop.

Late Assignments:

Classroom lectures are often presented on EdPuzzle, but all necessary links are posted on Google Classroom.

Assignments are due at 11:59 pm on due date. Unexcused lateness of assignments will be penalized at 10 percent per day late (for example, an assignment that is two days late will have a maximum grade of 80, or B-). After 9 days the assignment is worth zero points. Learners are welcome to submit assignments more than 9 days late as Merit Assignments, but not for class credit.
