Monday, November 6th


  • We'll begin with a Ch. 3-4 reading quiz for Slaughterhouse-Five, only this reading quiz will be a bit different than previous quizzes. You'll be able to use your book and your notes. For this quiz, you must identify and write down a key quote, not more than 2-3 lines long from within Ch. 3-4. Then you must write a paragraph, explaining how the quotation relates to a major theme of the book. 
    • Hint: Be sure to explain what the major theme is.
    • Hint: Make sure you correctly cite your quotation, using quote marks and a parenthetical citation with page number.
  • Reading and Notes: We'll read and discuss the first few pages of Ch. 5 together.
  • Finally, I'll introduce your first major essay topic: Describe a person who acted with moral courage. What can be learned from his or her actions and how do the lessons relate to you?
    • You'll complete and turn in a Pre-Writing Reflection Sheet.
    • We'll go over the specific guidelines for the paper.
  • You'll have WORK TIME for the following:
    • Vocabulary Page: Ch. 5 (Due Today)
