F and H Bands, 29 November: Turn-in A Midsummer Night's Dream Project (Children's Book, Comic, collage, etc). Please bring to class the text for collection. We will not be "swapping" AMND for another since our next unit-POETRY-does not require an anthology (text).
F and H Bands, 30 November: Root Word Quiz #6 (nov to port) Poetry Unit continued-Please Note: There are approximately TEN poems that are mandated for all English 9 students to read and "analyze." Once this is accomplished, we can study other poems. Usually, I do not introduce all of the mandated poems "one after the other." I attempt to select poems depicting a related "theme" that may assist you with the understanding of the required pom(s). I realize that some of you have developed a "dislike" for poetry-this may hinder your academic achievement with this unit of study. Certainly, I will attempt to change your negativity through my approach to the teaching of poetry.
NOTE: Many of the activities for this unit involve group work. I have NOT been pleased by how some of you "work" in a group. This will be addressed this week.
F and H Bands: Showcasing of Your Projects: Similar to a Gallery Walk. Poetry Unit continued-prepare to take notes-then we will examine a selected poem.
F and H Bands: Poem Analysis and Group Presentation of Assigned Poem.
