Students will complete reading assignments outside of the class, though we will read segments together during our discussions. In addition to reading assignments for home work, there are writing assignments, higher-level comprehension questions, and a creative final project. We will have lectures, group discussions, group work, Socratic seminars, explicit grammar instruction, and vocabulary in context. I incorporate plenty of time for students to talk and ask questions, as I believe this...
Students will be able to: ~identify the genre of a text ~identity the seven plot elements ~identify and discuss the various elements of character development ~identify tone and mood using citations from the text ~make inferences from the text using correct citations from the text ~identify various literary devices and elements and analyze their impact on the plot and character development ~identify the internal and external conflicts various characters experience ~identify and differentiate between types of conflict: man vs, man/man vs. self/man vs. nature ~write brief summaries of specific passages of the text ~compare and contrast characters in a text and in multiple texts ~identify the narrator's point of view (perspective) first, second, or third person ~identify the topic and theme of a text ~evaluate the validity of a thesis in a non-fiction text ~write essay responses to higher-level comprehension questions about a text
