Thirst for Knowledge Thursday!

Block A: Today I assigned the Verbal Visual Essay for your novel study. This assignment will push you to go beyond the words on the page to interpret ideas from your novel in a visual and in a found poem. The instructions are all explained on the yellow handout. Please feel free to ask me questions to find out if you are on the right track! Make sure your reading and sticky notes are done for Monday!

Block C: I hope you enjoy getting into your novel that I assigned today. You are all reading 7 unique and interesting books - that I hope will capture your attention. Your first meeting is next Tuesday - so make sure your reading and 4 sticky notes per chapter are done for that day. You may choose any of the reading strategies from the blue handout - but you should try to focus on setting and character as this is the beginning of the book.

Block D: Enjoy your three days off - there is no homework!
