Homework: February 7


English 11 (F)
  • Read Room! Many of you have done a good job of catching up, and many of you are ahead of schedule--hooray! Make sure you're taking notes, and get to at least the break on page 201 (though, I know many of you are already beyond that point...feel free to read ahead!).
  • Read your independent book, too!
Honors English 12 (G)
  • Prepare for your seminars. You might want to get together with a buddy, or talk through some of the questions you have. For the seminar, we'll be discussing any big questions you want to pose, but not clarifying questions--get those figured out ahead of time.
  • Read your independent book, too!
Honors English 11 (A)
  • If you need to, finish your Strength in What Remains essay revision. Remember, no more than another 15-20 minutes...
  • Then, write your Gatsby pre-reading journal. Instructions are on the handout, and this is a creative piece. So, give us a character or two, and show how they interact. Throw in some of those details that you brainstormed. Have fun with it!
  • Read your independent book!
English 12 (B)
  • Complete your "EXPLORATION" web. We'll use it in class on Tuesday to start reading Frankenstein! For reference, the one we started in class today is below. The prompt to write about on the back is: What do these texts tell us about the nature of exploration?
  • Read your independent book!
