Syllabus: parent signatures, If you haven't gotten your parent signatures in yet, get it done this week. I am ready to enter it as an assignment.
Lit terms: Metaphor, simile, personification. Fill the blank in your packet on the list of literary terms. The blanks should be filled with the following words: unlike, unlike, resembles, human
We watched the above video to have some fun with similes and metaphors.
Magic Four: In our Coming to America packet, we discussed and then read through pages 8 and 9. Each student needs to write their own sample Magic Four paragraph about the poem "The New Colossus." It is okay to use one of the claims from the packet. If students work together on this, they should not use the same claim. We spent thirty minutes writing a rough draft today. We included the MLA heading in our training. Next class, we will look at each other's papers to edit any errors. Then they will be turned in. These do not need to be typed, although that is always okay. This will be a 40 point assignment due next class. There will be some time to edit in class.
