Ok, here's a late update!

English 10 (A)
Today we did a little review for chapter 1 and 2, disguised as a quiz. Hurray! We also made book covers that should reveal a scene from chapter 1 or 2 of Animal Farm.

Homework
Complete your double entry journal for Chapter 1 and 2. Use quotes from each chapter. If you didn't have time in class to complete your book cover, complete that also for homework.

We are beginning to ease into our short story unit. There are more poems coming. Today we read "Snow" and began our initial response to it. This could be in the form of a creative writing piece, or a more persuasive or analytical piece. The whole point is to form an initial impression. There's no need to type it.

Another note - we have the go ahead to use the old Barron's books as much as we like. They are yours to use as you see fit. For those of you who want a newer edition, or a different study guide entirely, I can order them for you if you bring in the cash (tax included) for the book.

These are the three most popular AP Literature Study Guides:

Barron's AP English Literature and Composition 6th edition.

Cracking the AP English Literature & Composition Exam, 2016 Edition

5 Steps to a 5 AP English Literature 2016

I would highly recommend beginning some extra test preparation at this point. Sit down with some friends and hammer out a practice test in the Barron's book.

Homework
Finish your initial response. No need for editing or spell-check.
