Wed. Oct. 3



BR: Name three essentials you would bring on your road trip and why.

Agenda: 


  • Library: Students will finish peer editing the Beowulf essay. All final papers are due Friday.

  • Writing: Students will define the following literary terms: narrative, satire, situational irony, prologue, characterization, imagery, tone, atmosphere, couplet.

  • Pair Work: Students will share with each other what they know about pilgrimages of the past and present. 
To get you started, answer the following questions:

  1. Can you name some of the sacred places that have attracted pilgrims for centuries. 
  2.  What are some reasons why people might undertake a pilgrimage?
  3.  If you were about to go on a pilgrimage, what expectations would you have about it?

  • Canterbury Tales: Students will scan through the pages of the Prologue and begin making a character chart. As a class, students will begin reading.
