Scarlet Letter Test
Watch Crucible movie. This is an excellent film. One of the best, in my opinion.
Even though you will not be tested on vocabulary for The Crucible, here is a link to some vocabulary for the play: Crucible 49 Terms
Vocabulary for Friday: Walden Learn first 20 words
You don't have much reading to do this week, so we're learning 20 vocab words rather than 10. Doing so will make it easier to read Walden, which is written on approximately a 12th grade level.
Many of you will want to purchase your own copy of Walden. I will be ordering books tomorrow. If you're interested, bring $4. One of the main reasons that you should consider buying your own book is that you have to write down what you consider to be the 25 most significant quotes from the book. This is much easier to do if you underline as you read.
If you still haven't finished last week's homework, follow the directions below for adding your ideas to the Transcendentalism Google Doc
HOMEWORK--due tonight at 11:59 PM
Each one of you is to do research on Transcendentalism and contribute two sentences (three max!) to the document found at the Googole Doc found below. You will need to do some research on the Internet to see what you can find. The neat thing about this assignment is that you will find things that no one in this school knows about because you will become the experts on this matter. Synergy is what we’re talkin’ about here, baby. Collaboration gives us more information that any one person can accumulate.
