Block A: I hope you all enjoyed our drama club's fabulous presentation of A Midsummer Night's Dream! Congratulations to Ms. Kosar and all of the fantastic student actors and those behind the scenes as well.
Block C: The double-spaced good copy of your great poetry essay is due on Friday - make sure you follow the blue assignment sheet and hand in all components.
Block D: For tomorrow you each need to come up with 4 text codes, along with explanations of what they are and how they will help deepen our understanding of the novel as we are reading. Think about the skills of being a good reader - what have we been practicing so far this semester?

Is this good?
ReplyDelete1) C – This stands for conflict, a conflict in the story that can change the whole situation.
Example) When Homer blows up the fence with his first rocket. Mrs. Hickam could have ended it right there.
2) NC – Meaning new character, this is when a new character is introduced.
Example) The introduction to a new character would be once Quinten started talking about the Sputnik launch in class near the beginning of the story.
3) T-F – A new type of text relation, text to film/ text to show. When you can relate it to a movie or TV show, instead of a book, the world, or yourself.
Example) Comparing a scene of “Oblivion” to a part of “Rocket Boys” would be a T-F connection, as it is not a book.
4) Q – Meaning quote, a saying or line(s) that is not necessarily important (V. I. P) just may have significance of some sort or an inspirational quote or just something funny etc...
Example)
O’Dell: God’s honest truth, Homer. What are the chances… a bunch of kids from Coalwood… actually winning that science fair?
Homer: A million to one, O’Dell.
O’Dell: That good? Well, why didn’t you say so?
Not important lines at all, but quite funny.
