Tone Mapping Continues

1 & 2:
We constructed a tone map for "The Children's Hour" and completed a paragraph analysis of one tone pattern and its role in the purpose of the poem. On Monday's class, we will be taking the ACT Practice Test Writing Prompt -- all hour. On Tuesday, we will review your partner tone maps and then commence on a solo endeavor.

We finished, amidst an earthquake drill, the tone map for "Chicago" in order to provide an example for your future mapping needs. Then, we read "The Children's Hour" and completed the tone map for the text. On Monday's class, we will move onto step 4 of the process -- the analysis -- and review all the maps. On Tuesday, we will be taking the ACT Practice Test Writing Prompt -- be prepared to write an outstanding essay.

7:
I am typing this prior to class, so we shall see if we finish all of these items on the agenda. First, we will be analyzing your tone maps from "The Children's Hour." Then, we will be reading 2 new poems: "Richard Cory" and "Miniver Cheevy." Following the reading, each student will be assigned one of the poems to complete an individual tone map, which you will need to complete for Tuesday's class. ACT Practice Test Writing Prompt will be Monday.

*If you miss the ACT practice prompt, you will make this up the next class period.
