Vocabulary
- Listen to the new vocab words, and discuss them briefly--did you see them in the Soviet Union reading?
- Be on the lookout for them today. HIGHLIGHT them when you see them, and write the definitions out to the side as part of your annotating, please.
A Note on Animal Farm
- I’m going to have you read and annotate the first two chapters, as well as start a character list in your notes.
- Are there a million things I want you to think about with this novella? Yes! But I want you to get your feet wet with the reading before I ask you to consider additional information and ponder additional questions.
Quiz First
- Pick up the Soviet Union background quiz. Follow the directions, then turn it in at my candle.
- Now, you can start reading and annotating Animal Farm (directions below).
Animal Farm Reading Assignment
- Read chapters one and two, pages 1-14.
- Annotate carefully:
- make inferences
- ask questions
- make predictions
- make connections
- Create a list of characters in your notes (...either on paper or on computer; you will turn them in for a note-taking grade) to keep them straight; list characteristics each time the animal is mentioned.
- We will have a reading quiz tomorrow over chapters one and two.
