The Metacognitive: October 1, 2019

Focus: How does your mind puzzle through a sonnet?

1. Warming up by getting set up for your metacognitive

• You may either handwrite or type.

• At the top of your paper or document, please your name, date, and the title of the sonnet you're exploring (it must be from the original sonnet packet).

• Please use all of the class time given. If the class time is not enough, you can finish up at home tonight. This will count as a timed writing grade.

• Remember the two big goals of the metacognitive:

(1) You should be constantly bringing in words and phrases from the sonnet. All metacognitives stem directly from the author's language.

(2) You should end in a better place than where you started. What did the process of the metacognitive help you understand better or differently about your sonnet?

• If you handwrote, please turn in your metacognitive at the end of class if you're finished.

• If you typed, please share your Google doc directly with me before you leave class today.

HW:
1. For TOMORROW: Please finish your metacognitive if you did not finish in class.


2. For Friday, Oct 4: Read Chapters 16 through 19 and prepare your next Socratic ticket.
