Marvellous Monday!

Block A: Continue working on your short story genre project. Bring all necessary materials to class in order to make the most of this time you are being given. There will be some sort of knowledge check in of short story terminology from the blue sheet on Thursday - so please study for that!  Presentations will start NEXT Monday!

Block C:  The good copy of your transformational narrative is due on Wednesday - make sure you hand in the brainstorm, map, rough draft, peer editing sheet, good copy and pink criteria sheet.

Block D:  Great work on your first Lit Circle meetings today! I will be giving you time tomorrow to read in class - but if you think you need a head start, then please do! Today you looked up, and recorded the definitions for the 3 key themes of all of our novels: isolation, identity and survival. Keeping those definitions in mind, you are to record (on your sticky notes) any instances of connections, visuals and/or any of the other reading strategies that we have been practicing for Wednesday's meeting. I will be checking your notes - so please do a diligent job.
