Freshmen: Today we focused on a form that fuses narrative essay and haiku called haibun. We wrote a haibun in class, which is essentially a narrative essay that integrates a haiku into it. Work on Membean this week and read for 20 minutes tonight and tomorrow. A typed copy of your haibun is due in class on Thursday. Be sure it has the following elements: Typed, single spaced header that includes your lead and conclusion technique, interesting title below the header and centered, double spaced essay with haiku single spaced and indented.
Sophomores: Today we talked about and worked on an essay for the Letters About Literature contest. You need to bring a typed draft to class on Thursday. Complete your Membean work this week.
Honors Sophomores: Today we studied parables and their ingredients, and examined how the various texts we've read this semester are parables. Conclude The Alchemist for Friday's class, and continue to work on Membean this week.
CNF: Today we began viewing Hoop Dreams.
