Yes, yes, yesterday we had to use paper and pencil! Oh, my! Way to throw a wrench into the mix, eh? Well, we'll see what we run into today. The plans are to complete Class 2 together - filling in two more phrazecloze paragraphs, analyzing who had portions that were close to what Frederick Douglass said, and then learning how to write clear and useful introductions to quotes from the book. We also did one rewrite of the last paragraph in chapter 1. Again, the next two weeks will be tough stuff- content as well as vocabulary. It would be a good idea for parents to read the Narrative of Frederick Douglass alongside their child, or at least be aware of what we are reading. I do believe that students will rise to this challenge.
