1. Warming up with a more structured approach to tone vocabulary (10 minutes)
- (Re)introduce yourself to Quizlet.
- Create yourself a little list: Tone words, List #1. Make some cards for the first 10 words on the Tone Word List. If you're a visual person, use the image option--it's pretty cool.
- When you finish, play some Match or Gravity.
2. Reading and blogging on Chapters 2-5 in The Color of Water (20 minutes)
- Remember that you need just one blog entry for these three chapters (metacognitive or dialectical journal--see overview if you were absent on Monday)
- As you journal, work towards uncovering multiple meanings behind the title of your chapter.
- We will have a discussion tomorrow on Chapters 2-5.
3. Working on Renaissance Little Projects (rest of class)
- By the end of class today, try to figure out what your project title is. Use this title to help shape the focus of your project; think of The Color of Water's chapters titles as models.
- If you need more structure in your planning, click HERE for a plan sheet (optional).
HW:
1. Finish reading through Chapter 5 in The Color of Water by tomorrow. Make sure your blog entry is complete and published before class tomorrow.
2. Renaissance Little Projects are due February 10 (before class). You decide how much work you need to do on this at home.
3. We will have a "quiz" on Grammar #4: Modifiers this Friday.
