Third Class

Students responded to a question about chapter two of The House on Mango Street in their journals.

They completed a vocabulary worksheet for selected words from "The Interlopers" (302).

Mr. Stone shared Proverbs 15:1 with the class and prayed before a quiz over "The Interlopers."

Students worked with Mr. Stone to identify the type of conflict for twenty-nine plot manipulatives from "the Interlopers." After determining which conflict was primary in the story, students helped Mr. Stone arrange the manipulatives on the board to represent the plot line of the story.

Mr. Stone noted the complexity of the plot with its multiple conflicts.

Homework: Memorize the six basic parts of a plot line: exposition, narrative hook, rising action, climax, falling action, resolution. Review chapter three of The House on Mango Street.
