Freshmen: Today we started practicing the process of inductive thinking, which is one of the best ways to approach something as a writer. We did a few activities as a warm up, but the primary thing we did was view Mark Osborne's short film, "More" (which can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9u7WiDBek4). Your task is to finish your observations and inductions and to write an essay that answers the following prompt: What is the message (or theme) of the film "More"?
Sophomores: Today we focused primarily on identifying and imitating Martel's use of two techniques: listing and repetition. Remember your homework: Submit your essay to www.turnitin.com by Thursday, 7:59 AM - and bring a paper copy to class with your name on the back only that day, vocab is due Friday, and Part II from Life of Pi is due next block period.
CNF: Today we had a seminar on Chapter 3 of Blink.
