March 22, 2016

Independent Reading Time: ~25 minutes
Writer's Notebook: Which is better: knowing a lot about a little or knowing a little about a lot?

Students used the first 30 minutes of class to read, write their notebook entry, and blog.

We continued our midterm prep with a discussion of literary terms, including synecdoche. Students spent more time annotating and studying the nonfiction excerpt and poem that they will use on the midterm. I'll return their annotated copies when they take the test, and they may also use their lit terms packets (Classroom -> About -> Class Docs if you lost yours). First and second period exams are Wednesday, 3/23, and 4th period exams are Thursday, 3/24.
