Today's Objective: S.W. study text to determine a proper sequence of events.
Today's SAT Word: Memoir (n.):
An autobiography that contains personal stories and an author's memories.
"Frank McCourt wrote Angela's Ashes, afamous memoir about poverty in Ireland."
Today's Soundtrack: Irish Folk Ballads (Instrumental)
We have chosen these songs in order to help give students a broader feel for the culture and "flavor" of the Irish people. By playing folk music, we open our ears to a tradition that is largely born of the poorer class -- the very same class, in fact, from which the author of Angela's Ashes himself emerged.
Today's Warm-Up Question:
We all lead lives that are filled with stories. So many stories, in fact, that we couldn't possibly remember them all! So if you were writing a memoir of YOUR life, which stories would you choose to include? Why would you choose to include these particular stories?
Today's Lesson Notes: (none)
Tonight's Homework:
None.
