English 9

Thanks again for helping setting up chairs this afternoon!

Today students took notes on apostrophes, and completed Chapter 4/5 questions for The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. I also showed personal pictures of Eastern Europe and Auschwitz to help students understand some of the imagery and the description of the context in the novel. We then watched a short clip from the movie "Anne Frank" to help understand some of the events during the Holocaust. We finished class by reading up to Chapter 8.

Reminders:
  • Literary paragraphs were due today!
  • Chapter 4/5 questions: due Friday, Oct. 16, 2015
