I kind of like having every hour doing a different component of tone work. Make sure you are following your correct hour. And, if you are absent, you are expected to be prepared for the next class session -- either via this blog or via e-mail.
1 & 2: Floor circle time as we analyzed your partner tone maps and read the character narratives of "Richard Cory" and "Miniver Cheevy." For homework, create a tone map for you assigned poem and indicate tone shifts by lines and not by stanzas. Do not forget to complete the paragraph analysis on the back in which you use specific diction and evidence to validate the tone shifts and purpose.
4: ACT Practice Prompt Day. Your solo tone map is due on Thursday. Make sure that you are indicating tone shifts by lines and not stanzas. Do not forget to complete the paragraph analysis on the back in which you use specific diction and evidence to validate the tone shifts and purpose.
7: In partnerships, we compared and contrasted the RC and MC tone maps. Remember, when you are indicating tone, it is the author's feeling and not how the reader feels upon arriving at a shocking conclusion. Next, we started a power point of Keats Prompt examples. This included the "Citation Doctor," a review on how to cite and punctuation properly. More of that to come tomorrow...Your class is still in the lead.
