Writer's Notebook: Choose a new or interesting word from your reading and add it to the vocabulary section of your notebook. Share the sentence where the word appears with proper citation. Be sure to use the precise definition.
We talked about embedding quotes and formatting citations (posted on Classroom). As a table, students corrected passages that had improperly embedded quotes and formatted citations. We will look at one more example tomorrow. Students can use these new skills as they revise their summer reading essays (revisions due Tuesday, 2/16).
We reviewed poetry concepts using Plickers, a low-tech sort of assessment tool. Students will apply this to their chosen poem tomorrow. These concepts will also be tested on the Literature Analysis test Friday, 2/12.
