Homework for B-Day - Wednesday the 14th

Happy Valentine's Day to my lovely students! I hope that you all know that I'm so happy to spend so much of my time with you all. Hopefully we make a bit of Valentine's Day everyday in Room 301!

AP English III

Tonight you have two major goals to accomplish. First, there's the synthesis sourcepack related to your research question. This work should be submitted to me online. Hard copies of work will not be accepted. In the assignment you are creating the prompt page for your research topic. The opening and instructions are the same for everyone - take this directly from your prompt. The context paragraph, prompt, and citations will be different.

Don't forget to include five to seven sources. One of them should be a non-print source. One of them should also take a side opposite to yours - this would provide a future refutation source. I'll grade these over the weekend and return them to you via Google Classroom on Monday.

You also have reading and annotating of Invisible Man - you're reading Chapter One. This chapter is very strange and involves a lot of symbolism especially related to the boxing match. Pay attention to the veil and use your motifs to navigate the chapter. All of the motifs are seen in Chapter One. You should also make sure that you are completing your vocabulary per chapter as you read.

Don't forget that registration paperwork is due by February 27th!

English IV

Your homework is the same as your A-Day classmates. You are reading Chapters One through Three of Frankenstein and using the comprehension questions to make sure that you have understood the reading. You do not have to write answers to the questions, but you should be able to find the answers in the story. Make sure that you are actively reading - underlining and making notes as you read. This will improve your reading skills and better prepare you for future reading tasks.
