Thursday and Friday; February 25 and February 26

NOTICE: TWO JEOPARDY GAMES TO REVIEW FOR THE TEST ARE LISTED AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS LINK.


We did grammar packet #5 in class. It has some difficult parts.

We finished the film "Huckleberry Finn."

Class discussed the differences between the book and the movie. Then we discussed if they were important changes.

Next topic was themes. A theme is what we learn about the human condition. We wrote the themes on butcher paper. We will look at all of them from all of the classes on Monday or Tuesday.

Learn: a theme is a sentence that claims what can be learned from a text. The stronger themes connect several parts of the text. A weaker theme will connect only with a small portion of the book. There are many good themes. There can also be wrong themes if they can not be defended by the writer.
