| I put thie fish back - keep feeding them! |
Wednesday was the last day for us working together on the PowerPoint Presentation assignment and the Task Three Piece of Writing assignment, too.
Right then, on Thursday during Period One, we started our new unit on the novel "And then there were none", by Agatha Christie. I haven't taught this novel in years and I'm really looking forward to reading it again. Should be excellent.
We read to page 11 in the book and got the unit outline, too. I'll have some helpful links for this novel up on the right side of the blog soon.
On Thursday for Period Three, we started the unit on William Golding's Lord of the Flies. I've read this novel a number of times over the last decade. This novel is like an onion to me, to be frank. I can see something in the novel and peel it away and another layer of meaning is there underneath.
We got to about halfway through the first chapter before we ran out of time in the class. I also ran into technology issues yesterday and could not print off the questions for the class for homework. Ah well, it's just something for us to work on together on Friday.
Not that this is curriculum related, but I also saw this tweeted out today too:
