Finish Act 2- The Crucible-p1131 to end. Then finish filling out the R32-Character Chart for Act 2. Submit to basket.

Index cards passed out for Survival Cards-Act 2. On these cards write anything you want from Act 2, which you will be able to use on the test. Turn in by the end of class. Do not keep it. If absent, ask Ms. Batten for a survival card to fill out.

For Act 3 and 4 we will watch the film and continue to fill out R32-Character Chart.

Springboard wkbk p255-256. On pg 255, look up each word in Act 2 in context and write the context inside each box, for each word. Then looking at the context, put a definition for each word based on context clues only. You are allowed to work as a group, but don't simply copy. This is to help prepare you for the context clues post-test test, and a lot of students failed the pre-test.

On wkbk pg 256, first identify each as a metaphor, simile or personification. They are not all metaphors. Then underline, or write for each, what is being compared. Then in the right hand column, put what you think the character actually meant when they said this. This also can be done as a group.

Both 255-256 to be graded next class for 20 points.

In spare time, work on R39-41 multiple strategies, due 3/8, 80 percent of grade. As an alternative Assessment students who didn't pass FCAT can do the Last 4 skill seminar lessons in FCAT explorer if they provide best effort.Students who haven’t started explorer can do preflight check as alternate. Both reading and explorer can be done for extra credit.

Remember, Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston is extra credit if you bring in your own copy to read.
