Prose Writing, Slowed Down: January 23, 2020

Focus: How can we improve our prose timed writings?

1. Warming up with Academic Vocabulary, Set 3 charades!

2. Introducing the senior contract (finally!)

3. Practicing our prose timed writing with a slow-down on close readings (Row 2 on the rubric)

HW:
1. For FRIDAY: Read Chapters 9, 10, 11, and 12; prepare your Socratic ticket.

2. ONGOING: Spend 5-10 minutes Serial Reading each day.

3. TWO CHANGES:
THE LAST WEEK OF JANUARY WILL HAVE JUST ONE SOCRATIC; IT WILL BE ON THURSDAY, JAN 30, AND WILL COVER THE REST OF PART 1 (13-18): 

FRIDAY, JAN 31 WILL BE THE POEM METACOGNITIVE: Decide on your poetry paper/project poem and bring it to class. Remember that it should be from a different genre / time period than your 1st poem.
