Homework & learning updates
This week, we are focusing on analyzing poetry and writing narratives. Students are using the information that they are learning to write a realistic, fictional narrative from the perspective of a runaway slave or Harriet Tubman. We will also be analyzing a number of poems in SpringBoard, in addition to spending a great deal of time understanding and analyzing the poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe.
Homework Monday - Students will have no homework, but they have been asked to bring home the narrative that they wrote in class today and get parent feedback. Those who bring it back with a parent signature and a sentence or two of parent feedback will receive extra credit. Tuesday - Do the Tuesday portion of the "The Raven" packet. Wednesday - Do the Wednesday portion of the "The Raven" packet. Thursday - Do the Thursday portion of the "The Raven" packet. Comments are closed.
