Thursday, May 28 Agenda

}Bell Ringer: Thesis question (form): Go to my blog (english9mrsjohnson.blogspot.com). Click on the link on the most recent post; answer that question.
}Create a question on the book as a whole or specific to what you read last night: the end of the novel (should be something that would take a paragraph or so to answer)
◦Submit your individual overall story discussion question to me
}Collect Article 2 Summary and Response
}Stratton Presentation
}Small Group on the end of the book, themes, and large group discussion
◦Take the first 20 minutes (max) and talk about what happened in the end.  You may find that since we haven’t talked about these ideas in a large group that questions about the sheriff, Boo, what Scout imagines, etc. may work well as topics.
◦Prep for the Discussion: add more topics and/or questions based on the end of the book
}Analysis paper assignment –a THEME connected to: any focus question more in depth, any idea examined by us as a group or you as an individual (writer’s notebook), any quote, life lesson, real world parallel, etc
◦What is a theme?

}Homework: Answer someone else’s question (at least a paragraph in length, try for a good topic sentence), write a thesis
