Tuesday 3/18/14: Homework

Block E:

  • Finish reading and annotating Chapter 1. You will follow Nick to an awkward dinner party and you will meet the lovely Buchanans. Take note of Nick's observations (remember, he promised he wouldn't judge!)
  • Read your independent reading book too.


Block F:

  • Read Chapter 13 in the novel. Continue to track the Creature's experiences on your timeline using quotes and language from the text as you record the events in his story. 


Block A:

  • Work on revising your "Lie" story (final due on Friday) based on the feedback that you received today.
  • Work on responding to Writing Invitation #1--follow the directions on the handout and bring in your response (typed, saved to your Google Drive). Remember, writing invitations are practice pieces that are meant to provide you with a structured way to explore your ideas that you will eventually develop into a more formal essay. 


Block B:

  • Begin reading the circus known as Chapter 7 of The Great Gatsby. Get ready for some DRAMA, some HOT weather, some DRUNK and DISORDERLY conduct, and some very BIG events. For tonight, read to page 135. Take note of the travel arrangements, the weather, and Nick's observations. Pay attention to language--there are lots of great lines in this chapter!
