Take handouts from the back counter. Bellwork for October 9, 2017 Take handouts from the back counter. Write in your agenda. Look through your new vocabulary words. You may start working on your synonym/antonym homework (due Friday).

“Thank you, M’am” By Langston Hughes Complete the Pre-Reading for Thank You, M’am” Integrity- the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. Background Information Harlem- The outpouring of African American creativity in the early 1900’s in Harlem, New York City, signaled an important shift in American life. This cultural movement, known as the Harlem Renaissance, brought the works of many African American writers, artists, playwrights, musicians, and political thinkers new attention and respect. The artists involved in the Harlem Renaissance embraced art as a powerful tool to bring about change. They used various media to articulate and convey an honest exploration of African American life and culture.

Inferencing Readers use story clues. – They use details about what they’ve read to make an inference. 2. Readers use their own personal experiences. – They make “text to self” connections. 3. Readers use prior knowledge. – They make “text to text” connections.

Inferencing The combination of these strategies allows readers to make inferences (reasonable guesses) about characters and events.

Inferencing They... 1.Use word/text clues 2.Use picture clues 3.Define unknown words 4.Look for emotion (feelings) 5.Use what they already know 6.Look for explanations for events 7.ASK themselves questions!

Authors Imply, Readers Infer. Authors make implications that readers have to infer. What do I mean by these statements? Good Readers are Detectives who are always looking out for clues to help them better understand stories and pictures.

How does JIm feel? What story clues helped you figure out how Jim feels? What personal experience or prior knowledge helps you know how he feels?
