Block A: In class today we worked on the questions for "A Good Man is Hard to Find" in small groups - thanks for handing those in! The task for the story is to demonstrate your understanding of characterization in a short story. Write an original poem about the character of the grandmother in Flannery O'Connor's "A Good Man is Hard to Find." The poem must be at least 17 lines long, must use phrases and or words found directly from the story. Must clearly capture the essence of your interpretation of the grandmother's character.
Block C: Today we did some peer assessment on our persuasive paragraphs, then attempted to finish reading "The Most Dangerous Game" before my voice gave out. If you were unable to finish reading the story in class - please do so for tonight! We will work on the story map in class tomorrow.
Block D: Thank you for handing in your current events poem - I'm looking forward to reading them! I assigned the final project for our poetry unit today: A Poetry Anthology! Each day you will be given a specific goal to accomplish. Today you were to choose your unifying theme and write your 2 original poems. If you did not finish your 2 poems - please do so for homework tonight. We will move on to the next part tomorrow. This project is due on Monday. Don't forget about our noun quiz on Thursday!
