Freshmen: Today we continued looking at creative responses to art found in the book Heart to Heart. Your task is to choose a work of art and write two poems in response to that work of art. Each poem needs to fit the parameters of a different motif that we studied (e.g. each one needs to be either a stories, voices, impressions, or expressions poem - do not write two poems in the same motif). List the intended motif in your header, just below your name. You will be graded on how well your poem fits the stated motif, as well as your use of poetic devices that we studied earlier this year (e.g. figurative language, format, use of repetition, etc.). Print your poems and a picture of the art work you are responding to and mount it on something (paper, poster board, etc.) so that it can be displayed. You will also be graded on how nice your presentation is. These creative responses are due on the block day of next week. Read for 20 minutes Thursday, Friday, the weekend, and Monday and work on Membean.
Sophomores: Today we had a great presentation by Abigail on what it was like living in Africa, and we also discussed the events of Book IV from The Poisonwood Bible. Finish up your reading from Campbell's book and finish your essay, which is due on Friday.
CNF: Today we discussed No Impact Man a bit and also discussed whether or not Bruce Wayne should have become the Batman (of course he should have!).
