It's the last week before Spring Break; I'm noticing the wear and tear the semester is taking on many of the students. Hang in there!
This week, we'll continue with Synthesis, finish Gatsby and enjoy the movie, and begin reading for the next "Man and Nature/The Environment" unit. There will be some Learnerator and reading/annotating homework at the end of the week, but I'm hoping the students have a chance to rest up for the weeks after Break right before AP exam(s).
MONDAY: Journal warm-up. Current event discussion. Gatsby discussion - Chapters 7 and 8 with movie clips. Gatsby AP multiple choice practice passages and questions. Strategies for multiple choice.
Due: Gatsby Chapters 7 and 8 read.
Synthesis College essay due to Turnitin.com last Saturday, March 26 by 11:00 p.m.
Homework: Finish Gatsby, (Chapter 9). Have journals ready for a journal check. Bring books to class.
WEDNESDAY: Turn in journals for journal check. Watch The Great Gatsby movie (2013), bring food to share.
Due: Turn in journals, Gatsby books.
Homework: n/a
FRIDAY: (minimum A Day) Announcements/homework. Enjoy the end of the movie The Great Gatsby (2013).
Due: Any outstanding Gatsby books.
Homework: Read and annotate excerpts from Walden by Henry David Thoreau, and answer questions 1,3,7 and 20. This pdf isn't the best quality; please do your best to work with it, printing it out or turning your tablet/laptop/pc/phone as needed.
