1: If you were absent today, you missed 2 quizzes - the vocab and the syntax quiz - which actually counted under first quarter (like the other AP Lang classes). As with any missed quizzes, you have 48 hours to either take the quizzes or schedule an appointed time to do so. Tomorrow will be a chance for you to show off your close reading skills with our first team close read!
3: We finished phase one of our team close read and moved onto phase two. By tomorrow' class, you will have a team introduction and the individual body paragraphs completed. We will finish up, in theory, tomorrow.
5: To complete our Alcott Team Close Read, your groups gave readings of the intro, one body paragraph, and the conclusion. To wrap up class, we looked at your Cindy Syntax prompts - o.k. technically the Orenstein prompt - and discussed the importance of syntactical purpose and how correct apostrophes can help your overall presentation. Tomorrow will be the move into diction - with a little anaphora to merge syntax too.
