January 7, 2013

Literacy development started reading the book Monster today. It is written from the perspective of a 16-year-old on trial for murder. The novel is interesting because it is presented like a movie script. We are using literary signposts to study this novel.

Third period is finishing the introduction to the first three literary signposts. They will begin reading the novel Among the Hidden later this week. this novel is the story of a third child in a society where only two children are allowed. It is the first book in a series.

English 10 will finish Of Mice and Men this week or early next. Students have printed off three possible themes and are gathering information from the text to support those themes. The final product will be an essay based on theme.
