English 8

We started off class with silent reading and a worksheet on subjects and predicates. We also went over questions for Chapter 1 for The Outsiders and students were given time in groups to finish their Character Profile Charts. We then continued reading Chapter 3 in the novel.

During the second half of the period, we looked at a Powerpoint outlining main characteristics/events of the 1960's. We then watched "John Green's Crash Course of the 60's". After this, students started a collage identifying the difference between "Greasers" and "Socs".

Reminders:

• Grammar Sheet (p.57) due next class
• Character Profile Chart due next class
• Finish Chapter 3 for next class
