For Thursday, February 28

Correct your AQWF analysis paragraph and outline.

Your final copy of your original fairy tale will be due on Monday, March 4.

For Tuesday, February 26

Write your rough draft for your fairy tale for Tuesday.  We were going to postpone this so you could correct your AQWF papers, but our schedule did not permit a quality discussion of your papers.  We will tackle AQWF on Tuesday.

Therefore, complete your rough draft.  Make sure your story has a dynamite beginning, middle, and end.  We will perfect your stories over the next week.

Blessings,
Mrs. Fox

Completely fill in your worksheet for your analytical essay over AQWF.  If you run out of room in the squares, use the back of your page.  For each point (topic sentence), you will need to have a minimum of two specific examples from the text.  Each example must be followed by your interpretation of the event/quote. 

On Tuesday, we will work on writing introduction and body section 1.

We will also finish up other projects!

Thanks for sharing your JOY with me today!!!

For Friday, February 8

Look over your list of possible topics for your analytical essay.  Select the topic that most interests you.  Do not select your topic because it looks "easier"; each topic will require deep analysis of the novel, so go for something that interests you.

At the top of your analytical essay worksheet, fill in the box with the general statement.  You do not need to use complete sentences.  Just list your topic and possible points.  We will compose your thesis statements and topic sentences on Friday.

Also, we should finish up our other projects Friday (found poem and propaganda poster).

You bless me so much; I want to share your work with the world!

For Wednesday, February 6

Finish the novel.

Come prepared to wrap up activities:  Propaganda Poster and Found Poem

Prompt:  Compose an essay around the following topic:  The lost generation in All Quiet on the Western Front.  As with other analysis papers, we will be starting this process in class.  You might just be thinking about the topic.
