AP English III
This post will review all of the information you need for the end of our unit on Beloved. Pay close attention to important dates and details.
I'll be out next class, so you'll be having a movie day on Friday. You'll be watching an excellent documentary about Nina Simone that really helps to bring a lot of the ideas we've been following in this unit full circle. As you watch, there will be a viewing guide to direct your thoughts and observations. This guide will be collected for a grade when we finish the film. Your projects are due via an electronic submission by the end of the day on Friday. I'll be grading on Sunday. Be sure that I have access to your project.
On Tuesday we'll finish the final two chapters in class. I love the ending of this book and want to read through it as a group experience. If you would like to finish the book in advance, you are welcome to do so. Your final assignment for Beloved is a 1Q1P assignment. You'll have time in class to work on this on Thursday (I'll be out for the State Championship Swim Meet). The 1Q1P and Final Annotation Check will be collected/scored on Monday, February 11. This will be the day that we fully move into our new unit.
English IV
Today in class we finished the first part of our competition for the poem of the classroom. On Tuesday we'll go to the next part of our competition - the class battle. Remember that in your groups one person will read the poem aloud and then the other people will say why the poem is a strong poem using the rubric.
We also did some good work with our vocabulary today! This is a good practice for our vocabulary test next week. Remember that you should be studying all sixteen wordparts in Lesson 16. If you are missing anything, please let me know.
