Today's Class and Tonight's Homework - 12/08/14

AGENDA
Objective:  To understand the essential questions for The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton and to begin to understand the different types of characters and the process of characterization.

1.) Turn in comma mini projects and check rough drafts of open response
2.) 10 minute journal:  Write about stereotypes.  What are they?  What do you think about them?  Explain.
3.) The Outsiders introduction and essential questions
4.) Video clip and discussion
5.) Agenda books

HOMEWORK
1.) Final drafts of writing check up due tomorrow (Tuesday, 12/09/14)
2.) Read chapter one of The Outsiders
3.) Weekly word work assignment due on Wednesday (Wednesday, 12/10/14)

**Something interesting that the ELA Report Cards yielded is that people think it's easier to remember their word work if it were due on Wednesday, because then this assignment would be due on Word Work Wednesdays.  Good idea!**
