English 10 (block A)
Today we began work on our "found" poem. This is a poem using words from the original text. Make a poem that uses either of the themes we devised as a class.
The themes are:
1. Power begets greed for more power.
2. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
3. MAKE YOUR OWN.
Homework
Bring your poems in on Thursday. Practice reading them before class! (enter happy emote here)
Also, your DEJ for the book will be due on Friday. You may use quotes from anywhere in the text for this DEJ.
English 12AP
Today we discussed the short story, "The First Day" by Edward Jones. There was some excellent response to this story, and it might be a great platform for another creative assignment! <(^_^)>
Deadlines:
March 4: Creative assignment 1, essay revision, and your cheque if you intend to take the AP exam.
Homework
Finish your collaborative essay tonight. No need to print it, we can discuss them on the projector.
