First and fifth periods continued working with the passages dealing with Charlie’s co-workers’ behavior in “Flowers for Algernon.” We ended the day returning to quoting sources, using the following stem to help incorporate source material into our writing:

Charlie Gordon doesn’t have real friends at work because they โ€œsomething from the actual story right hereโ€ and maybe โ€œanother thing right here.โ€

We’ll be having a quiz on this technique early next week, so we’ll be doing all sorts of practice between now and then.

Second and fourth periods continued with act three, taking a closer look at scene three, a scene which inevitably leads to altered opinions of Romeo. We’ll be finishing the act up tomorrow.

Homework
  • First and fifth periods: none.
  • Second and fourth periods:
    • read scene five;
    • work on “Decoration Day” paragraph;
    • complete homework from yesterday (if you haven’t already).
