Monday:

We took our vocabulary quiz and finished reading The Most Dangerous Game. Here’s a link to the YouTube audio version, if you would like to follow along as you read:

Students in periods 3, 4, 6, and 7 also completed the plot diagram (otherwise known as Freytag’s Triangle). Here’s a copy, in case you need another one.

Many of you told me that you are already very familiar with this approach to plot, but if you need a review, the Wikipedia article for dramatic structure is very good:

Tuesday:

In period 1, we did the Freytag’s Triangle (see above) for MDG.

In periods 3, 4, 6, and 7, we began talking about themes in MDG. Students worked with partners and then discussed with the whole class the first five questions in the Notes and Thematic Analysis packet.
