- At the beginning of the period, the students picked up TKAMB and Night from the textbook office.
- We completed pages 34-35 in the grammar workbook-Direct Objects.
- I passed out a new Course Calendar
- Then we got into the TKAMB Introduction. We read an intro piece about Harper Lee, which includes an introduction to the setting, plot and some of the main characters. We located some key places on a map of Alabama, and then I introduced the Reading Response Journal. The students are expected the complete an entry into the journal for each chapter of the book.
- We ended the period by watching the first 20 minutes of the Oprah MLK, Jr. video.
- Homework: Study Vocabulary & Spelling #19-20; Complete the Superstitions Activity, bring your OR Book, Read TKAMB Chapters 1-7 & Complete the Reading Response Journal by Thursday March 10.
