Periods 2&4: Freshmen
I was out of the building all morning at a meeting. Thank you for being nice students for my sub. She left a nice note about how you worked hard, despite a little chattiness. Class began with SSR and collection of homework. Then, students worked on a worksheet for the short excerpt from "Black Boy" by Richard Wright. This will be due at the beginning of the period on Monday.
Period 8: AP Lit.
Great discussion of "The Country Husband" (despite its icky main character). In groups, plot diagrams were constructed and we began to share these on the projector, but ran out of time to see them all. We'll finish this up on Monday. Also for Monday, you should read "Sonny's Blues" by James Baldwin and be ready to discuss the chronology of events and how this plot structure ties in with the meaning of the work.
