April 20, 2016

IRT: 20 minutes
WNB: Students defined the following words from this week's "Polls" article in the vocab section of their notebooks: egregiously, referendum, short shrift, and ideological.

Using their completed allegory and names charts, students added information to a Google Slides presentation to build a notes collective. We then discussed Lord of the Flies as a political, religious, and philosophical allegory. Students did a really great job on this activity!

We reviewed the AP multiple choice packet and discussed different answer choices.

Students received two articles to read in preparation for the Lord of the Flies major project: "Josh Bishop Obituary" (read more about Bishop) and "The Unknown Rebel." Students should consider the following as they read the articles:
  • images 
  • songs/music
  • times you've witnessed something similar
  • "center of gravity"
Tomorrow, we will look at SAT questions for LotF and discuss two more articles for the project. Students will also receive specific project details tomorrow.
