AP English III
Today
we talked about arguments in section III of In Cold Blood. For homework this weekend you have three things to
focus on. First, complete 5 vocabulary notecards. These vocabulary words come
from your vocabulary bookmarks. Choose five words (from In Cold Blood, Didion, Ericsson, or the AP Multiple Choice). On the
front side of the card put the word, sentence in which you found it, page
number (not necessary if you chose it from AP multiple choice), other forms of
the word (verb, noun, adjective, etc.), and its etymology. Google is one of
your best resources for finding the prefix/root/suffix. THIS is
also a helpful website. One the back of the card, you should put your own
definition and synonyms (explain any difference between the definitions!). Remember
– 5 cards on Tuesday, they will be checked for completion.
The
second part for homework this weekend is to revise your outlines. Ms. Coco will
be available Monday before and after school, as well as A lunch if you have any
questions. Mr. Miller will be back on Tuesday. You can always email either/both
of us as well if you have any questions.
Finally,
work on your rough draft of your In Cold
Blood essay. You should have ½ of the rough draft done by Thursday, Sept.
13. Come to class with a printed copy so we can have a writing workshop.
Period 4 – Thank you
for your patience and cooperation during technical difficulties. I appreciate
you all staying on task for that final activity.
English IV
No real homework to complete over the weekend. Do keep reviewing all of the new vocabulary (aka literary terms) that we learn on a daily basis so that we are able to keep moving forward! We will have a quiz coming up on those terms next week– so be sure to keep that in mind.
Hope you all enjoy your weekend! We’ll see on Tuesday!
