Thursday, 1/8 & Friday, 1/9

Pre--
Pull up your analysis assignment (3 questions)

Lesson--
Share & discuss in groups of three: with classmates wearing relatively the same color shirt (by the time the bell rings).

Give each other feedback on writing--simply type at the bottom a strength of their analysis (in general) and a weakness of their analysis, and suggestions for improvement.

Remember, good analysis:
1) Is focused on what the author is doing
2) Has a claim sufficiently proven by the evidence
3) Uses quotes appropriately
(NOT TO MENTION CORRECT GRAMMAR!)

Discuss Rainsford & Zaroff's motivation, and the author's intention regarding "the human heart.

Watch this video to introduce the TIME of Harper Lee's writing
