Hat's off to Thursday!

Don't forget that tomorrow is Pro-D which means you get a 3 day weekend - try to get out and enjoy the last of the good weather.

Block A: Theme, theme, theme. What is that allusive thing called theme? Well, it is your job to wrestle with the theme of "Saturday Climbing" for your second literary response paragraph. The assignment:
In a well-developed paragraph, analyze the theme of "Saturday Climbing." In other words, what is the message that the author is saying about life and what it means to be human. Use evidence in the form of quotations to prove and analyze the theme. The outline and double-spaced rough draft is due on Monday.

Block C: Great work in your groups today - homework this weekend is to read and prepare for your meetings next week.

Block D: The creative energy in class today was great! A lot of good work on your setting haiku. If you did not finish your three haiku, make sure they are done for Monday. Also, if you are behind on any other aspect of your paragraphs or other story maps take this weekend to catch up on missing work!
