ALL SECTIONS:
Friday: took Final exam on The Hunger Games and Simple Solutions Test #6 (Lessons 21 to 24).
Created a one page sheet entitled "Theme topics" and "Themes." We copied down theme topics for the Hunger Games. We worked on a Figurative Language review packet during class.
(Princeton -- we proof read each others' essays comparing the book and the movie, we continued the powerpoint entitled Theseus and The Minotaur, we reviewed the literary element: theme.
Yale -- we read Robert Frost's poem, "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening," analyzed it and developed the theme.
Harvard -- we examined two songs written by Taylor Swift addressing themes in The Hunger Games.
Homework:
Choose one theme topic, write the theme that was developed in the novel, and create the draft of a poem expressing this theme.
Simple Solutions #25
Read two to three chapters of the Science Fiction novel you chose. Create a sequence of events, a "think and note," a few three steps, etc. (your choice) as you read; note setting descriptions & page #s for the final book report.
Finish the figurative language packet if you did not finish it during class time.
(Students had the opportunity to stay after to finish any makeup work.)
