Today, as a prelude to our new novel study on Speak, we started off class with pre-reading questions/discussions about high school and "cliques". We went to the library to take out books and read pages 1-24 in class. We also discussed some of the novel so far: the characters mentioned, the atmosphere of the school, the dynamic between students and teachers, and some of the main points of conflict.
Reminders:
Blocks 1/2:
- Read up to page 24 in Speak for tomorrow!
- Finish study questions for pages 1-24 for the novel Speak: due tomorrow!
