Presentation transcript:

Tuesday, September 20th Take out the discussion questions that you wrote yesterday Sit quietly, please, and wait for further instructions.

Learning Targets To learn about O’Brien’s style, and our classmates, through listening to poems. To build our vocabulary comprehension by compiling a list of new words as we read. To take notes on new reading using new lenses.

Vocabulary While you read, please have your vocabulary list out (I will be coming around to see what you’ve done). As you identify new words in every chapter (2-3 per chapter now), please label them by the chapter where they can be found.

Love and Spin - notes For Love: Why is this chapter titled as it is? Find at least 2-3 quotations from the chapter that help to explain why. For Spin: For each of the following characters, indicate what you knew about the character BEFORE reading the chapter, and what you know about him now. Mitchell Sanders Kiowa Jimmy Cross Norman Bowker Azar

Homework Finish your reading of Love and Spin, the notes, and the vocabulary words (2-3) for each chapter. ***If you want to get ahead of your homework for Wednesday, read On the Rainy River. In addition to building your vocabulary list, take notes on the following: Find two quotations that illustrate Tim O’Brien’s struggles and emotions. In the last two lines of the chapter, the word “coward” is used. What does it mean in this context? Connect to O’Brien’s struggles.
