Review and Catch Up


Goal: Review and catch up.

Read:
  • You are reading book #4 (or more).
  • You have a good book that you want to read ready for Thanksgiving break.
  • You have checked out these books if you borrowed them from our classroom.

Before we do anything else:
Remember the group presentations from last Friday? We really enjoyed them.
What we need is feedback from YOU about how you think you and your group mates worked together. Did everyone in the group pull their weight?

Please give us HONEST FEEDBACK here. We will keep your comments about each other confidential and use them when determining individual grades.

Concepts to Review:
During our Reading the Novel unit we covered a lot of concepts. Today we will review those concepts and Wednesday you will show that you can apply them.

The test Wednesday will ask you to read a short story and then answer questions about:
  • Characterization
  • Internal and external conflict
  • Setting and imagery
  • Sensory details
  • Diction (word choice)
  • Connotation and Denotation
  • Plot
  • Theme

Catch Up:
  1. Check your English Journal. Are all of your assignments complete?
  2. Do you have a good book ready for Thanksgiving break?
  3. Don't check in your group novel yet. We will need it through the end of this week.
