Homework: December 13

Happy Friday the 13th!

Honors English 11 (A)

  • Complete your Chapter 7 map--pull out all of that information and organize it all. It's complex...there's a lot going on here, and there's no way you could remember it and keep it all in your head. But, it's important to understand! So, here are the categories for the mind map:
    • Hutu/Tutsi—Deo’s understanding (and how it changed)
    • Burundian history—Deo’s understanding (and how it changed)
    • Rwandan history—Deo’s understanding (and how it changed)
    • Memory
    • Education
    • Contrasts and contradictions
    • Tough questions—Deo's
    • Your questions
  • Read your independent book!
English 12 (B)
  • Today, I gave you our working plan for the rest of the week--you're going to be reading and writing about "The Body" by Stephen King. You know what you need to do, and when you need to do it by, so....do it! This weekend, you should spend at least 20 minutes working.
  • Read your independent book!
Honors English 11 (D)
  • Read Chapter 9, to the end of page 119. 
  • For this chapter, you'll be mapping out the events literally. You can find a map of Rwanda/Burundi here. As you read, write down important events/quotations, and track Deo's progress. You can print out the map that's linked here, draw your own using this one as a guide, or, if you really want to get crazy, create something online using Google Maps.
  • Read your independent book!
