Sixth Period: Characterization

(Tuesday, August 28 for Periods 2, 5, & 6 and Wednesday, August 29 for Periods 1 & 7)

Mr. Stone shared a poem ("I Don't Want to Wait Until You Die")that he wrote in response to Randy Roberts' recent sermon on friendship at the Loma Linda University Church.

Quiz: "The Red-Headed League"

Mr. Stone gave notes on characterization (character, indirect characterization, direct characterization, protagonist, antagonist, hero/heroine, and villain).

The class discussed who was the protagonist(s) and antagonist(s) in the stories they have read so far.

Students were given two options for their second journal entry (R7). They could discuss whether heroes have responsibilities, or create a character.

Homework: Students should finish reading the summer reading book (To Kill a Mockingbird) and/or review for their test on August 30th.
