So, There's Prose on the Test, Too: November 7, 2017

Focus: How do we read prose for the actual A.P. Literature test?

1. Warming up with the Night-Before Checklist

2. Trying out just the first inch and the last inch with chapters from Beloved

3. Reading "Janie starched her face..." with some MC questions

4. Speed dating with your MC responses

HW:
1. For yesterday: Make sure your Henry IV blog is posted. Bring your book to turn in.

2. For tomorrow: Finish and PRINT your sonnet essay (hard copy due by 3:00 pm Wednesday). Stop by for a conference if you'd like some help. Initial the checklist and staple it to the top.

2. For Friday:
  • Please read Chapters 5, 6, 7, and 8 in Beloved. Complete your next reading ticket following the new Socratic ticket guidelines. If you'd like more of a focus, trying focusing your ticket on one word you've taken notice of the in the novel so far (perhaps because it's repeated, or because Morrison's using it in a new way).
  • All revisions, make-up work, etc. from the past 6 weeks is due by Friday, Nov 10.
