Period 1 & 2--ELA B 30/AP 30
We summarized the "Merchant's Tale" and viewed "The Pardoner's Tale," supporting what we had read last week. We finished the day off with the "Franklin's Tale" and summarized it and found the theme with some discussion. Tomorrow, we will watch the remaining 3 tales I have available and I will provide the summaries with the students providing the themes. AFter this, they can start to work on their persuasive essay. The AP students will recieve their topics for their timed writes. They'll have the weekend to review the prompts, choose one and can bring in a fully developed thesis to help guide their writing for Monday.
Period 3--Pre-AP 10
We are getting reading for our field trip to Persephone Theatre tomorrow to watch Twelfth Night. We finished going over the synopsis for the play as well as for A Midsummer Night's Dream for the kids who are staying back. We then went through the assignment that they have to work on tomorrow while we watch the play. The students need to bring their lunch for tomorrow and a clip board or something to write on.
Period 4--History 10
The students did their summaries from yesterday's lesson. Then they started watching a documentary about the French Revolution, specifically the overthrow of Louis XVI, his execution and the Reign of Terror. We will finish it on Monday.
Period 5--History 30
The students read about Lord Durham's Report and answered some questions and then had a handout on the Act of Union of 1841 with some questions.
