Tuesday/Wednesday, Sep. 22-23

QUIZ THURSDAY AND FRIDAY

We will cover:
Vocab from
Black Boy by Richard Wright
and
perhaps there will be some questions about what we've covered so far in the Reading Self & Society unit.

I didn't post on Friday or Monday of last week, but on those days we read
Black Boy by Richard Wright and practiced setting a purpose for reading. I'll finish checking your work on Thursday/Friday.

Here's a quick hint for answering questions in your English class:
Support your opinion. I often ask for your opinion or your interpretation. I'm interested in the answer, but I'm just as interested in how you came to that conclusion. What in the text led you to believe what you believe? Quotes and specific examples help. I DO NOT like general answers, ever.
