- We started the period with a reading comprehension quiz covering TKAM Chapters 10-15.
- After the quiz, the students completed page 23 (Prepositions Review) in the grammar binder.
- We corrected the prepositions review and then corrected the TKAM Quiz.
- I passed back the rubric and packet from the first Socratic Seminar and reviewed my expectations and grading criteria.
- I then passed out the packet for the second Socratic seminar (to be held on Thursday Feb. 25). The changes include: 3 comments required, and the total points possible this time are 30.
- I will have a study session covering Act II during tutorial on Wednesday and Thursday.
- We then moved onto reviewing the content of Chapters 10-15 for TKAM. I split the class up into 6 groups. Each group is responsible for a chapter. Each group created a poster that included the following: a title, 2 quotes, and a bullet point chapter summary. The students will present the posters at a later time.
- Homework: Finish Raisin Act II and the reading response journal to go with it; write 2 questions for the Socratic Seminar; Read TKAM Chapters 16-23 DUE Monday March 1.
This blog is meant to keep my Composition & Literature students updated on my class. If you forgot what we did in class, or if you were absent, please check in here to find out what happened in class. This will be updated at the end of each class day.
