Homework for A-Day Students - 12/4/2013

AP English III

Today we introduced our major project on The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn - our satire analysis websites.  Below is the link to the site mock-up, remember that this is your instruction manual for the project.  All required elements are here and all instructions are here.  Be sure that your group follows them to the letter.  To start tonight, you will want to decide which genre (Huck Finn, video, contemporary non-fiction, or image) you want to analyze for your group.  We will begin working through the skills of rhetorical analysis next week so that you can begin this work in earnest.

For reading tonight you need to read the excerpt from Oluadah Equiano.  Remember that this is part of the shared slave consciousness - a shared memory.  Think about how this deepens your understanding of Jim and his situation as well as his character.  Don't forget that for Tuesday you need to be to the end of chapter twenty-two, the end of the "Grangerford section."

Russian I

For homework tonight you need to complete exercises 124 and 125 on adjectives and agreement.  Also remember that there will be a scheduled help session this Friday afternoon on verbs.  Those of you struggling in Russian would do well to attend this.  Additional times can be made but you have to ask.
