B2 - Comparative Analysis Rough Drafts DUE. Three Inquiry Questions DUE. I collected papers and then went through Inquiry Questions with students individually. We talked about the layout of the Writing Plan assignment. For the remainder of the block, students were encouraged to review the Bibliography and Note Cards lectures posted on Moodle for MLA formatting of bibliography entries and in-text citations. In addition, students were asked to start working on the research for their Research-Based Analysis papers and to begin putting together the Writing Plan. Assignment: The Writing Plan is due on Monday after Thanksgiving Break.
B3 - Article of the Week Response #7 DUE. After Pleasure Reading, students were asked to write a half-page journal entry about their thoughts on "Fate." We discussed that for quite a while, then students took an Opinionnaire, and we discussed it as well. For the remainder of the block, we began notes on the Greek Theater. Assignment: None!
B4 - Test Review Sheets DUE. After giving students some time to review prior to the test, I collected their review sheets. After the test over Acts I-II, students had time to read their pleasure reading books until everyone had finished. Next, we went over Elizabethan Translation Exercise #3, reviewed the Pre-Act III Notes, then we read and discussed Act III: Scene 1 together. That was all we had time to read together in class today. We'll pick it up from there in class on Monday. Assignment: AOW Response #8 is due on Monday. No additional assignment.
