每週 1-2 小時. Outside reading is required for this class. A chapter will be covered in most class periods. Comprehension questions will also be completed. There are several quizzes to be completed at home. Three writing pieces (expository, persuasive, and fantasy narrative) will be completed. There will be other enrichment activities to deepen understanding of the story, most of which will involve writing. Depending on how swiftly a student works, the outside work should be completed by most students in 1-1.5 hours for each class meeting.評估

If you like adventure and quality, classic literature, this class is for you! We will be doing an in-depth, chapter-by-chapter reading of King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table outside of class and analyzing the story together in class. Some portions of the chapter will be re-read aloud in class to practice fluency and dramatic expression. Discussion is such an important part of connecting to a story and interactive, teacher-led discussion and dissection of story and writing elements will be the focuses of this class. We will also be reviewing key vocabulary and comprehension questions for each chapter. This advanced literature class is intended to be the bulk of your child's literature and writing instruction for the semester. Students will be writing well-constructed answers to comprehension questions and will also have additional assignments that involve creative, expository, and persuasive writing. I am delighted to meet with students for extra, one-on-one editing sessions after a writing piece is completed. There will be optional enrichment activities offered for students that enjoy more extension. I will use slideshow presentations and other apps (like Kahoot!) within class to facilitate meaningful discussion and review. Students will be expected to read the assigned chapter before class, as well as complete the comprehension questions outside of class. Any question that your child is confused about can be saved to discuss during class. We are in this to learn together! The vocabulary and key words to know for the next chapter will be covered at the end of class in preparation for reading and answering the questions for the next class. Most weeks, two chapters will be covered with quizzes and a final test given throughout the semester. This schedule will change somewhat based on learner needs and extra activities for extension based on pacing but should stay fairly close to this plan: Week 1: Class Introductions Introduce context for time period and family tree Discuss Book 1, Chapter 1 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Assign roles and dramatically read part of the chapter Discuss the historical accuracy of King Arthur with evidence Summarize Arthur and Merlin's relationship Week 2: Discuss Book1, Chapters 2 and 3 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Discuss knights and chivalry Practice making an outline Begin brainstorming for research project Week 3: Discuss Book1, Chapter 4 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Discuss examples of the chivalrous code with characters Begin character webs Begin research project and characteristics of expository writing Week 4: Do Review for Quiz #1 and Discuss Book 2, Chapter 1 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Research about medieval castles and draw picture Discuss credible sources and how to cite sources QUIZ at home Week 5: Discuss Book 2, Chapters 2 and 3 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Paragraph about Gareth Discuss common characteristics of "romances" in literature Share expository research paper/project Week 6: Discuss Book 2, Chapter 4 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) and do Review for Quiz #2 Discuss and write a persuasive paragraph about Tristram and Iseult Discuss connections between chapter 4 and other stories/myths QUIZ at home Week 7: Discuss Book 2, Chapter 5 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Discuss jousting Begin discussing argumentive writing techniques and begin planning paper topic Week 8: Discuss Book 2, Chapter 6 and 7(review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Begin work on creative writing adventure story-share in next class for guessing the object game Dramatically read the poem "The Wooing of Sir Keith" Discuss medieval weapons Continue work on argument paper Week 9: Discuss Book 2, Chapter 8 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) and do Review for Quiz #3 Discuss honor and write persuasive paragraph about why (or why not) it is important to knights Edit paper QUIZ at home Week 10: Discuss Book 3, Chapters 1 and 2/3 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Discuss the Holy Grail Practice with true and false statements from the book Discuss honor and the easy/hard path Finalize argument paper Week 11: Discuss Book 3, Chapters 4/5 and 6/7 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Compare Naciens and Merlin Discuss the value of the quest for the grail using persuasive techniques Share argument papers Week 12: Do Review for Quiz #4 Begin discussing short story techniques Begin brainstorming for narrative Orally summarize main ideas of the novel so far Update character webs with new information Week 13: Discuss Book 4, Chapter 1 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Continue writing story story Compare the actions and responses of Lancelot and Arthur Practice choosing descriptive and precise language in writing Practice editing for word choice Week 14: Discuss Book 4, Chapter 2 (review vocabulary, comprehension questions, and quotations) Analyze Arthur's decisions and state of power Edit short story Week 15: Discuss Book 4, Chapter 3 and do Review for Quiz #5 Take Quiz at home Analyze what Arthurian legends are factual history and what are fantasy Re-read favorite parts of the book Share final short stories Grammar review games Week 16: Flexible week for extension or catch up

It will not be the focus of our discussion and I will not be dwelling on it at all but this book does involve infidelity between two of the characters in the story. There is also time-period related violence frequently involving Middle Age weapons.
