Students finished viewing Ben Stiller's The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) and began reviewing for the Short Story Test 2: Setting Point of View and Theme.
Mr. Stone distributed and went over a review sheet for the upcoming test. Students should study the Quizlet stacks Mr. Stone made for Titles and Authors, Setting Details and Elements and Titles, and Vocabulary.
In addition, students should be able to list the five elements of setting:
1. geographical location
2. historical period
3. time of day
4. weather
5. cultural milieu
Students should practice writing out their paragraph responses to the question on the function of setting and the question on a theme/moral in the film The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.
Students had time to complete a T-chart as part of the prewriting for their upcoming film review paper.
Homework: Finish T-chart if not finished in class and study for the upcoming test.
Test for Periods 2, 5, & 6 will be on Tuesday 18 November 2014 and for Period 7 on Wednesday 19 November 2014.
