AP English III
Solid discussion today around the ideas of structural/systemic racism and the elements of Maya Angelou's "Graduation" which helped us to come to our conclusions. As I've always said, the way to get into a text is through the tone. By investigating tone, its development, and its changes, we can really see what authors think and why they think it. Here are your reminders for Friday's class.
You have vocabulary cards due to me on Friday - numbers sixteen through twenty. Make sure that you are using a variety of resources to complete these cards. There is also reading in Beloved - Chapters 3, 4, and 5. As you're reading, connect to the motifs that we've pulled out. Understand what is happening and why it's important to the narrative. How does it contribute to the message Morrison is crafting.
Lastly, we will have our final discussion on Baldwin on Thursday. I've posted the whole article to Google Classroom; be sure that you've completed the final section.
Oh, and the answers for the multiple choice are: C, B, B, B, B, A, B, E, A.
English IV
Today in class a few of you were able to finish your first project and everyone else is very close. On Friday we'll have the goal of finishing projects one and two so that I can start grading for the weekend. Additionally, we read a section of A Doll's House - Act III. Next class we'll be moving closer to the conclusion in order to see how Nora and Torvald resolve their problems.
Make sure that you're focused on your projects and test corrections at this point. If you need help with anything, come during lunch for extra assistance.
