Full Throttle Friday!

Block B: Today we discussed the characters from "Thank You M'am" and the various plot points. We then read our last story: "All the Years of Her Life." There was a vote on what the in class work would be and the majority chose to complete the plot diagram and leave the inference work for Tuesday. If you were called down for photos and did not complete the plot diagram in class - please do so for Tuesday! In addition you need to study the pink sheet of terminology for the quiz on Wednesday.

Block C: Great start to this unit today! You met with your groups and completed (or mostly) completed your discussion organizers. If you did not finish there will be extra time on Tuesday. You are responsible for getting your reading and sticky notes completed for the next group meeting. Also you should be choosing your 3 quotes and writing your 3 personal responses to discuss with your group on Tuesday.

Block D: Thanks for all the great questions about thesis statements! Consider the feedback and for this next attempt at the literary analysis what you would like to focus on to get better. The double-spaced rough draft is due on Tuesday for peer editing. Also you should study the green sheet of terminology for the quiz on Tuesday.
