TKAM Final Chapters

Monday 23 April 2018 for Periods 1, 2, 5, & 6 and Tuesday 24 April 2018 for Period 7


In honor of National Poetry Month, Mr. Stone read from Rumer Godden's translation of Carmen Bernos de Gasztold's Prayers from the Ark.

Mr. Stone set out three priorities for the period:

First, finish reading the final three chapters of To Kill a Mockingbird if you didn't manage to finish it while camping.

Second, work on copying your selected quote for each chapter of TKAM  in your commonplace book if you haven't done so already.

Third, study the selected vocabulary from TKAM  on the classs Quizlet site.

Mr. Stone listed thematic topics addressed in TKAM:

innocence
compassion
forgiveness
sin
guilt
justice
judgement
race
youth
morality/ethics
fear
women and femininity
lying
poverty
family
love
gender
politics
The Great Depression
parenting
education
slavery
abuse
protection

Students may also tag their selected quotes for personal meaning, connection, question, or amusing.

Homework:  Study vocabulary from TKAM.
