Almost Time to Say Goodbye to Chopin

Great progress today with presentations as we are now left with 3 in each class! That means Monday will be the last day, and it will be time for you to return your Chopin texts.

At the end of the hour, I gave your a highlight package of free response essay writing, one of the three styles you will need to accomplish on your AP Lit exam. Free response prompts are fairly general - as you will see next week - and relies on the writer (you) to select a text of your choosing and bring in the specificity and upper level analysis to show mature, collegiate-level writing. To prepare for free response essays, you will need to know novels/plays forwards and backwards (at least 2 for the test, but we shall have 5 over the course of the class). As a result, you will be making a book card featuring The Awakening or a text from your brand new 101 Books List for the block day of class. We will go over the details one more time on Monday - such as which 101 Books we will be covering during this year - but you can start the process over the weekend.

And, since I did mention to fifth hour about my designer friend, here is a link to her website to check out her clothing and her artwork: https://iheartfink.com/?v=7516fd43adaa.
