Stones, Reviews and Scenes...

Happy Thursday everyone!

9s:
Today, we worked a lot on the Tuath De Danaan, and the idea of quest. It's good to see most of you doing the homework reading, but some of you definitely have catching up to do. This weekend is a great chance to do just that.


Homework:

  • Find out your name in Irish! Maybe there aren't direct translations for everyone, but the Internet is awash with all the names. You need to find your name along with it's spelling, pronunciation and spelling :)
  • Write a letter from Kay to Alan, detailing what has happened so far. We've read up to Chapter 5 together, so here's your chance to show off what you know. This letter needs to be one page, handwritten and double spaced. 


11s:
We've started our planning for our Final Essay, a five paragraph look at some deeper questions. We will continue planning on Monday, as I know you are eager to get this essay finished.

Homework: Over the weekend, I would like you to look for six quotes that you could use to back up your answer. Remember to reference properly.

12s:
I have now handed over the reins of teaching to you, and you broke into groups of 3 - 4, to start presenting a scene to the class. You have the handout with you, asking you to answer some questions about your given scene. Remember you also need to prepare a handout for the class to take away with them.
We will work more on this next class.

Have a great Friday, Cambie,
Ms. Johnson.
