English 10: Blocks 5/6

Congratulations on finishing your first novel in English 10!

We started off the class today with a worksheet on adverbs. Overall, we finished Chapters 9 and 10 of Animal Farm and worked on corresponding questions. Chapter questions are due next class. We also looked at the definition of allegories, symbolism and satire, and students started filling out an allegory chart for Animal Farm. In addition, we looked at TV clips demonstrating propaganda and the use of satire.

Reminders:
  • Literary paragraphs were due TODAY
  • Chapter 9 and 10 questions: due Friday, Oct. 10, 2014
  • Animal Farm Exam: Wednesday, Oct. 15, 2014
