Wednesday, September 8 (E10)

Today's Objective: Students will use before-, during-, and after-reading strategies in order to read fiction.


Today's SAT Word: Reconciliation (n.): Reestablishing a good relationship. Making peace with an enemy.

“Harry and Snape feuded for many years, but eventually there was a reconciliation between the two.”



Today's Soundtrack: "Run This Town" (Radio Edit) by Jay-Z, Rhianna, and Kanye West

We have chosen this song today because we'll be discussing a basic question of land ownership.




Today's Warm-Up Question: “Who’s going to run this town tonight?”

In the battle for land ownership in “The Interlopers,” which side are you on? Do you believe that one man rightfully owns the property (and if so, WHICH MAN?), or should these two men split the land between them? Why do you feel the way you do?

In a complete paragraph -- defend your position!
