Homework: March 5

Honors English 11

  • Remember, chapter 10 is the massive chapter in this book (and, it contains the massive paragraph that spans five whole pages!). Tonight, you'll read to the top of page 63 (that's the end of the mega-paragraph). Make sure you read and annotate carefully. Keep your insights from class today in mind as you read. Add to your ideas and observations!
English 12
  • Read chapters 13 and 14 in "The Body." 
  • Finish the paragraph you started in class. Remember, your question is: What does Stephen King want readers to know about the experience of growing up, and how does he share his idea?
  • You might use this structure to start write your topic statement: In "The Body," Stephen King (verb, like describes, develops...)        (strategies...think about how)     to show        (what)             about the experience of growing up.  (Remember, this is a first draft, so we can "clean up" the language once you have a good idea.) Use your notes from class today, and check out the photo of our discussion, too!
