Monday, December 9
Learning Goal(s): Continue reading Night, considering Wiesel’s choice in tone and diction and their effects on the audience.
Targeted Standards: ELAGSE9-10RI3: Analyze how the author unfolds an analysis or series of ideas or events, including the order in which the points are made, how they are introduced and developed, and the connections that are drawn between them. ELAGSE9-10RI1: Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. ELAGSE9-10RI4: Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative, connotative, and technical meanings; analyze the cumulative impact of specific word choices on meaning and tone (e.g., how the language of a court opinion differs from that of a newspaper).
Agenda:
- Read Night and answer guided reading questions. Independently, choose ten questions to write developed answers to for chapters 1-3 and ten questions to answer for chapters 4-9. (Packet here)
- Study unit 6 vocabulary words for the vocabulary quiz on Friday!
