Devotional Text & Prayer:
"A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger."
Proverbs 15:1
Quiz: "The Interlopers"
As students turned in their quizzes, they punched holes in the yellow genre sheet they received yesterday.
Mr. Stone directed the students to place the yellow genre sheet in the front of their interactive notebooks. He quickly reviewed the order of the notebook's contents (L1, R1, L2, & R3) and discussed the correct answers for the plot diagram of "The Most Dangerous Game" (R3).
Students received vocabulary worksheets (5 & 73)with selected words from "The Most Dangerous Game" and "The Interlopers." Mr. Stone noted the typical three-part construction of the vocabulary sheets: spelling strategy; roots, prefixes, suffixes, and forms of a word; using the selected vocabulary.
The students worked with Mr. Stone through Part A of both worksheets.
Students received a list of twenty-nine actions in "The Interlopers." They labeled this sheet L3. Using blue, green, and pink highlighters, students identified which of three different types of conflict each of the actions is. Some actions are involved in more than one conflict.
During the next class, the class will diagram a plot line for each of the three conflicts from this story and discuss the relationship between conflicts in a story.
Homework: Finish the two vocabulary worksheets and memorize the six major parts of the plot line. (See L2.)
Remember only one term needs to be provided when two are possible. Extra credit will be given for providing the term denouement, properly placing it on the diagram, and explaining its meaning.
