Today we spent time in class reviewing the paraphrasing section in SPHE. The section starts on page 339. Keep going until you complete it. We also read the P.S.: interview and cast aloud. If you want a copy of this section of the book, there are copies outside my office: L-235 in a labeled box. There are two handouts. Take one of both.
Homework was to read chapter 1 and complete a reading log which includes the following: vocabulary log (words and definitions); questions, passages that intrigue of delight you; notes...personal discourse with the text, character descriptions and a brief summary of key points and themes.
Do this for each chapter.
As you read, think about a potential essay topic. You will write an essay about a theme from the book.
