The Scarlet Ibis- Week of Late Start

Wednesday/Thursday: Vocab. 5
Next week: Root Study guide/Vocab. Exam 1-5

Period 1- Tuesday-I am sorry that I missed you due to English Department in-service. Classwork: Listen to Chapter 8 in Ender's Game and work on study guide questions. Homework: continue study guide and vocabulary.

Period 2- Wednesday- Classwork: Vocabulary 5 test, finish annotating/reading The Scarlet Ibis, write thesis statement. Homework: find an article that reflects Hurst's message about the real life Doodles in our world: those who suffer because we have forgotten our brotherhood (ie: those who lose their lives to bullying, war, racism, etc.) Sadly, that shouldn't take you very long. Find anything that you feel is important to you. Annotate it and make a work cited for it.

By the end of the week, each class should:
Finish Chapter 8 and study guide
Submit the Scarlet Ibis packet: annotated story, work cited, thesis, and annotated article with work cited. (Period 1- it should be complete- but you will turn it in Monday morning.)

Weekend Homework: find an article (annotate and do a work cited) on the death toll of any major war: World War 1, World War 2, Vietnam, Korea.
