First and fifth periods had a  practice run of the extended starters (ten minute writing sessions followed by five minute mini-discussions in pairs) we’ll be doing as part of this final unit.

Second and fourth periods began looking at the question of foreshadowing in Great Expectations.

Homework

• First and fifth periods: none.
• Second and fourth periods: read chapters 16-20 of Great Expectations. Use the skimming technique we practiced in class yesterday.
