Grade 12
  • We've begun book 1, "The Sword in the Stone" from The Once and Future King by T.H. White and read through chapter 2.
  • Each chapter should be summarized and analyzed in notebooks. Analysis should cover the usual literary elements, especially author's purpose, mythic and hero journey elements.
  • Tomorrow is STAR testing once again. Once done, students will return to class and read chapter 3.
Grade 10
  • We are up to chapter 19 in Catcher in the Rye.
  • Yesterday we did some practice with writing thesis statements and constructed responses on Holden's behavior in chapter 18.
  • Today: Holden often claims to hate movies yet in chapter 18 he goes to one. Why?
  • Continue with chapter 19.
