First, second, and seventh periods wrapped up the first act of Anne Frank. We’ll be doing the second act in a much shorter time, finishing by the middle of next week.
Fourth period continued its poetry unit, with students teaching today about imagery and the sonnet form.
First, second, and seventh periods completed the second scene from Diary of Anne Frank. After reading the scene, we looked closely at how much information can be inferred from a few passages of the dialogue.
We’ll be taking a break tomorrow for the book fair and then return Thursday.
Second period spent the day in groups, preparing for their poetry project. We’ll begin those on Thurday or Friday. The actual poetry unit will spill over into the next unit, To Kill a Mockingbird.
First, second, and seventh periods all worked on dialogue analysis. In a play, all things we learn about characters have to be teased out from the dialogue, so we practiced doing just that: reading closely what characters say to see what we can determine about the characters, the setting, and the situation.
Fourth period didn’t have class due to the PSAT.
