Wednesday, November 10 (E9)

Today's Objective: Students will deepen background knowledge and historical context of To Kill A Mockingbird.


Today's SAT Word: Accountability (n.): A state of being held responsible for something or someone.

"In today's English class, we paired up with our accountability partners."


Today's Soundtrack: "Mockingbird" (Radio Edit) by Eminem

We have chosen this song today because it shares a title with the story we will be covering this quarter. In today's class, we finished our pre-reading of Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird.


Today's Warm-Up Question:

Look at the class pass rate and failure statistics from last quarter. What do you think when you see these figures? How do they make you feel? And what can we do to change those numbers for this quarter?

Tonight's Homework:

Students must bring in their signed parent / guardian letter for next class (Monday, Nov. 15). If you have lost or misplaced your handout,
a digital copy of this letter is available online.

Students will need to bring their copies of To Kill a Mockingbird to class every day for the remainder of the second quarter. This will count towards your daily participation grade. Failure to bring your materials will result in a zero.
