Hamlet Exam Review / Catcher in the Rye Chapters 1-3

College Prep 12
  • Went over the hamlet exam. Addressed concerns.
  • Handed back Hamlet essays. Discussed some grammatical issues and the need for act, scene, line text references to support an argument.
  • Tomorrow:  Start The Sword in the Stone by T.H. White
Grade 10
  • Pop quiz on chapters 2 and 3.
  • Discussed the characteriztion of Holden Caulfield as revealed so far. There are a lot of contradictions in his narrative: "I am illiterate but I read books." He says he hates phonies but claims he is a terrific liar. What does this say about him? What is his self-image?
  • HW: Chapter 4 and reading log.
