Homework - 2/15

English III:

Tonight for homework you will need to read chapters eighteen, nineteen and twenty.  As you read, continue to pay attention not only to your group's focal point, but also the other ideas that we have been talking about in the novel.  As we move toward the end of the novel, it's important to think about what messages Salinger is sending us about these different ideas.

You will also want to go ahead and set up your group's website for your project.  Follow the instructions that I gave you in class.  I'm including the project mock-up at this link.  Once you create the page, make sure that you've shared it with your group members as well as with me.  Follow the formatting guidelines here.  These projects will not be due until after we finish reading the novel, but you will want to be sure that you are spending some time thinking about your ideas over the next few days.

English I:

Your movie reviews are due tomorrow for editing.  Bring it with you to class.  We will also begin our study of poetry in depth by looking at some interesting pieces of poetry by Robert Frost and Billy Collins.  Don't forget, you may want to start looking at all of your literary devices that we've covered this year.  Quizzes are coming up on these things!
