Week 12 & Beyond

We will finish our fun film post-SAT.

We will prep for Warriors Don’t Cry by returning to speed reading from past semesters.

(You will actually read this silently to yourself – no following-along-with-audio-and-falling-asleep-in-class for this novel.)

We will start the novel in full after the eclipse, 04/08.

Tuesday 04/09: prep work on The Little Rock Nine and a worksheet quiz to complete.

Wednesday 04/10: Finish speed reading and calculate new reading speed – view film on Little Rock Nine – take notes in your class notebook. NOT ON GOOGLE DOCS.

Thursday 04/11: Finish film & quiz over it (open note).

Friday 04/12: Start reading the novel. Schedule TBA.

You will read, take notes, collect quotes, and be prepared for quizzes each week. There will be a final in-class essay on this, written by hand.

Post Spring Break SAT Prep

SAT is around the corner.

We will focus on the Essay portion, since the essay is optional and prep materials are few and far between on that: SAT ESSAY RULES

You also have access to full-length practice tests in your BlueBook app, so use those as well (you can pause and return at your leisure).

Week 11: SAT + Mental Mashed Potatoes after + Friday off for Easter. Take SAT then recharge before our final unit.
