- QUIZ: Grammar - Prepositions, Subjects and Verbs.
- After the quiz, read Prejudice Packet page 11; and read the Project Packet pages 11, 39-47
- I passed out a new course calendar.
- We then reviewed MLA format for Works Cited to get ready for the mini research project that will take place next time.
- I then went over several elements of the Final Project:
- We reviewed Business Letter Format. I showed students samples and we discussed pros & cons of each. After that, I introduced the requirements of the Formal Business Letter.
- I pointed out the outside reading log book list and introduced the requirements for the outside reading log.
- Finally, I talked a little bit about the final project itself, specifically, the theme(s) that must be incorporated.
- We ended the period by discussing the prejudice questions and MLK, Jr. Speech questions.
- Homework: Pick Outside Reading Book by Friday March 4; Work on the Formal Business Letter-DUE Monday Feb. 28; Attend Tutorial to Watch Scottsboro Boys Video: *Part 1 on Wednesday OR Thursday (in room 16); *Part 2 on Friday (in room 16) OR Monday (in room 30); Meet in the Library on Thursday & Decide on a Partner
