Good morning.

We’ll get started at 11.

 

Today’s agenda:

 

1.   Literary Terms

2.   Finish “Dead Man’s Path”

3.   HW  Find a copy of Animal Farm to read. We will begin

the novel next week.

 

Monday – paragraph about “I Confess” and “Dead Men’s Path”

 

-possible compare/contrast paragraph

 

 

Online – study guides

In my opinion – not a good idea, not reading a book, horrible way to experience a novel

- very low quality reading

 

My advice: Read the novel. Think your own thought about it.

 

Reading a novel is not like doing a driving test.

 

study guide – useful tool, after you have done your reading

 

Trust yourself and be your own guide when reading a novel.

 

all the magic will be gone, literature is wonderful tool for creating empathy, new experience, deep experience, tells us about ourself – you deserve that experience

 

study guide:

Snowball is Stalin

Squealer is Pravda

 

 

I don’t want to read a book and have someone standing over my shoulder telling me what I should think.

 

Jump into the novel just like you would jump into a pool.

 

You can find it yourself. You are your own best teacher.

 

We will begin Animal Farm the middle of the next week. I’ll tell you.
