Students turned in EOC Passage Analysis today. (Just write FREE in the final space.) Then, students got out SpringBoard Unit 3 Embedded Assessment 2 Planning Guides. If/When students showed me completed packets (WITH PAGE NUMBERS for Step 6), students were issued a laptop for the class period to draft the literary analysis. At the end of class, I collected SpringBoard Unit 3 Embedded Assessment 2 Planning Guides from students who wanted me to hold them. We probably won't revisit this paper until after spring break!

If you missed class today, you missed a class period to work in the lab writing your rough draft of SpringBoard Unit 3, Embedded Assessment 2. At this point, students should be finished reading Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart and should be finished with the SpringBoard Unit 3 Embedded Assessment 2 Packet. We will spend Thursday and then Friday drafting the actual literary analysis (from the thesis statement and outline in the packet) and the first draft will be due to Turnitin by midnight on Friday, March 29th, 2013.

Hello, students! If you missed class today, please check the March 20th Daily Boards. There is nothing for you to print, but I really think it will help you to open the SpringBoard notes and take them down for 3.18 to fill in any gaps in your understanding for Chapters 15-19. This time away from Umuofia is key in Okonkwo's character ark, shaping him as an (arguable?) tragic hero.
