Discussion on what the 'signature style' of an author is, and related this to Vonnegut's "Harrison Bergeron."
Began reading "Teddy" by J.D. Salinger. Students are to annotate with the idea of a signature style in mind. Read to the top of the second page, third paragraph down. Write a brief reaction in notebook. (Note: This is a 16+ page short story, which will be read in chunks. Each chunk will have its notebook reaction, and a response paper will be written when done.
Tomorrow, this first section will be discussed in small groups, then as a large group.
Grade 10
Read the end of the book aloud. Discussed the significance of the conclusion.
Tomorrow will be a catch up day. Anyone behind in the reading and reading logs will have that time to gain ground.
Wednesday: I will be out. Essays will be written in class.
Thursday: Multiple choice exam and finish essays. Final check of reading logs.
