We are learning to pay attention to the experiences revealed in texts, and what they may teach us about our own lives.
I can identify common overarching ideas and themes in literature;
I can make inferences while reading;
I can identify significant ideas in a text;
I can make connections between the text and my own experiences;
I can explain the choices the author makes and how these impact me as a reader;
I can describe how a text’s values, belief, and power impacts my identity.
Today, I would like you to begin with Quizlet. Click on the word “Quizlet” in the widget found in the right-hand sidebar. Set a timer for yourself, and work with the vocabulary for this course for 15 minutes.
Next, using your thinking about your novel write blog post #1.
Finally, if you have time continue either
- working on your hero journey novel; OR
- working on your writing portfolio
“A Mountain Legend” is due today.
