- Mr. Leal introduced today's grammar: Kinds of Sentences - declarative, imperative, exclamatory, interrogative, pages 119-120 odd #'s only.
- While he reviewed the grammar, I checked homework ("A Pair of Silk Stockings" Discussion questions, and "A Pair of Silk Stockings" Written Response).
- We passed out and I introduced the Final Exam Study Guide. It is the main homework for the week. The expectation is that the entire study guide is complete by Friday. In order to participate in the very thorough study session on Friday, students must show that they completed the study guide to the best of their ability.
- I then showed the rest of the elements of the short story power point presentation. We went over character, setting, point-of-view and irony.
- Mr. Leal introduced and read "Antaeus" to the class.
- The students then had about 20 minutes to answer the questions about the story.
- We spent the last 10 minutes of class discuss the questions (we only got through the first 4 questions). We will finish the rest of the questions during the next class.
- Homework: Be sure that you complete the "Antaeus" discussion questions. Work on theFinal Exam Study Guide-->DUE Friday.
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.
