English 9, Tues. Nov. 30

We did words 26 to 29 today: morally, insolent, impertinent and defiant. Add them to your list.

We also wrote a 200 to 400 word journal entry in our journals from Farley's point of view based on the last sentence on page 52. Based on chapters 1 to 7, discuss how his attitude to wolves are changing.
Include in your journal references to the following:
  • appeal to the five sensens
  • be specific-refer to names of people, places, things
  • use sentence variety
  • include two quotes from the novel
  • examine his reluctance to give up the myth that wolves are vicious murderers
  • write about some of his silly reactions to the wolves, i.e. losing his temper, etc.
Tonight: Read chapters 8, 9, and 10 and be prepared to discuss them in class tomorrow.

Keep marking key passages about myths/realty of wolves with post-it notes.
Thank you.
