Tips for conclusions:
Ask yourself--
- What does this chapter reveal about human nature? What does it reveal about mankind?
- What does this chapter say about American society or American values?
- How do the ideas/arguments in this chapter relate to us today?
Work in groups to finish OPTIC analysis of your group's Dorothea Lange photograph. Turn it in when finished, either at the end of class today, or in class tomorrow.
HW: Bring a revised, complete draft (introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion) that is typed to class on Wednesday. We'll be doing some activities to improve the paper's style. Staple your current rough draft to the back of the new draft, and the scoring guide you received today to the very back of the packet.
Continue reading your independent reading book--we've changed the deadline for the first 50 pages to FRIDAY. Bring your indie book to class on Friday and be prepared to discuss the first 50 pages.
Study for your vocabulary/visual analysis quiz, which will be on Wednesday. Part I will include vocabulary words from The Grapes of Wrath AND from Enrique's Journey. Part II will ask you to analyze and write a conclusion paragraph--the "C" from OPTIC--for an image. If you need help with vocabulary, visual analysis, or your Grapes of Wrath intercalary chapter essay draft, see me or email me ASAP!
