Wednesday, Feb. 8 Agenda

*Bell Ringer: Modernism Presentation
*ACT Prep (slide 6)
*Writer’s Workshop Time
*Drafting or Peer Eval of Myth
*Second Draft due TOMORROW!!
*Small Group Discussion: I’ll check the close read and answers from yesterday/homework
*Create list of similarities to other myths we read, how does it show Nat Am myth characteristics?
*Discuss other notes
*Discuss metaphor/metaphors
*Discuss things you are confused about: Work together to answer ALL questions or come up with ideas to help you understand the story.
*Come to a group consensus: What is the author’s purpose of this story? What is the author’s attitude towards Thomas Builds-the-Fire? Towards the gov’t/BIA?
*Your group needs to post as a comment to the discussion board on Schoology: your list of characteristics, your answers to the last three questions, and at least three important things you talked about

*Read your book (at any point when you are done and we haven’t moved on): remember, you will be doing a one pager, so if you want to mark interesting ideas, quotes, themes, etc, that would be a good idea.
