Happy Evening Everyone! Sorry to be posting so late, but we just finished up our meet tonight. Another win for the AquaFalcons! Here are your reminders for our class on Wednesday.
English IV
Today we played our review games to remind ourselves about our vocabulary knowledge as well as the main content for Act III of A Doll's House. Next class you'll have your unit examination. There will be questions about characters, questions about the plot, short answer questions, and vocabulary questions. Be sure to use your folders and the notes you've taken to prepare.
AP English III
We worked through some strange elements of Beloved with Chapters 10-13. There's so much going on in this text that I think it may be most important to focus on one character but then keep the other two major ones in mind. Beloved is always a part of the discussion now, so we should keep her/it as part of our understanding of the characters too. Be sure to use the slides and notes to go back and look at how you are annotating the text and what you are looking for. A lot of the annotations look a bit...sparse...as I look at your books in class.
Next class we'll be looking at Equiano's narrative about his captivity and experience on a slave ship. I think that this piece gives a lot of important context for understanding the whole slave experience from beginning to end. Keep in mind Equiano's audience and how he appeals to them.
Your proposals are due at the end of class on Friday; you should have been able to take a look at more research in order to understand what you're going to be saying about your topic. You've got to be giving me a specific insight; we'll talk more about what this means on Wednesday as we go over our most recent writing assignment.
