Hello everyone! I apologize that I cannot be with you today. I expect that you will treat the wonderful person that is here in my place with tremendous respect. Thank you for your patience as I attend the training I have to attend. - Ms. BlackToday's Goal: Continue to practice providing context and appropriate transitions for the evidence you use.
The Plan:
- Read your Book Love books!
- Take your first quiz on The House on Mango Street. You will need to use your book for one of the short answer questions, therefore, this quiz is timed. You will have 8 minutes. You can do it. I promise. (If you were absent yesterday, the homework was still on the blog, and the quiz was posted in School Loop. You will need to take the quiz anyway.)
- Receive your 9th grade Literary Devices Vocabulary. You will have a quiz on these definitions in exactly one week. (December 10)
- Today's classwork is on paper. It is an extension of what we did in class yesterday. Everything you will need to remember what we did yesterday is on this piece of paper. It is due at the end of the period. I do not mind if you work together, but what you write down needs to be in your own words.
- Once you have turned this in, you may work on your homework.
Homework:
- Read The House on Mango Street, pages 12-20
- Flag four more pieces of evidence that relate to a thematic concept on your bookmark (one from each vignette that you read)
- Study the definitions of the literary devices you received today in whichever manner you deem appropriate for you. (flashcards? Write examples of each? Etc.)
- Have a wonderful night.
