11.13 - Place Tracking and Character Analysis

We started today's class with a review of the set 1 - 5 roots and prefixes. Everyone did their best to identify which roots and prefixes they could still remember and then we reviewed responses to check the actual meaning of each root/prefix (results are pictured below).

Next, everyone met with their place partner to complete tracking references to their assigned place in the Lord of the Flies story.

In the last fifteen minutes of class, we returned to the character analysis work that we had been doing looking at the principal characters of the book as Golding presents them in the first eight chapters.

At the end of class, I explained the level 4 assignment: Lords of Hogwarts that combines our discussion of personality and character analysis.


Homework:

Prepare for the unit 1 roots and prefixes quiz next Monday (reviewing sets 1 - 5)

If you did not finish it in class, complete the the character analysis work for chapters 1 - 8.

If you have elected to do so, complete the Lords of Hogwarts assignment.
