Comp/Lit 10: 4/26/2011

STAR Testing & Introduction of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

  • STAR Testing took place today, so the periods were only 50 minutes long.  
  • We started the period with a Grammar QUIZ on Unit 7: Subject-Verb Agreement
  • After the quiz, we read through page 13 of the Utopia packet.  This is an introduction to Betty Smith and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.  
  • The students then responded to the journal prompt at the bottom of page 13 (predictions).
  • I then showed them the read in the Utopia Reader, and the awkward page transition from Chapter 3 to Chapter 56.
  • We then spent the rest of the period updating portfolios.
  • Homework: Read A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (Reader pages 60-77); Complete Chart for A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (packet page 1); Complete Questions for A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (ppg 14-15); Check Grades Online-Grade Corrections & Make-up Work DUE Thursday April 28
