Today, we finished the film, Shakespeare in Love, clapped for our athletes during our Star Parade, worked in our book club groups for twenty minutes, got started on a paragraph AND I returned the tests. Phew. We did a lot today. Tuesdays are long days. If you were absent, find out what you missed and get it completed.
Tomorrow: we'll have time to work on the paragraph and we are going to study for our re-test. We'll do a multiple choice re-test during Thursday's class in order to strengthen our multiple-choice test-taking skills and the ways that we study.
Question on your novel: In a formal, literary essay of 300 to 500 words, choose a key setting in the novel and discuss how its descriptions represent your protagonist and the novel's emerging themes.
Find three really clear and juicy passages to analyse before you begin as you will need to discuss the author's use of diction, tone, sentence structure, and other key descriptive techniques.
Overdue sonnets: Tomorrow is the final day to submit these to Connor and Emi.
