English 9 Class Notes

Objective(s): English 9 students 1) read independently for a sustained period of time and journaled critically, and 2) analyzed literary concepts through chunking.

Periods 1 and 3, after reading and journaling today, you began chunking The Odyssey. We started with imagery, and you sure impressed me. We ran into a little confusion making level 2 (blue) inferences, but I think today I hit on a way that should make drawing inferences from analysis based on level 1 (yellow) observation easier for everyone to understand. I’ll continue to emphazise it in class, but to make sure it sticks, I’m going to try to find a way for each individual to make the connection.

Class today was great; you all participated very well. I’m really pleased and proud to see everyone digging in a taking responsility for his or her own learning, and it was nice to have so much company tutoring this afternoon.

Don’t forget your homework.
