English II

Do Now:

1. Drop off your sign progress report to the metal basket
2. Turn in your Fairy Tale paragraph
3. Write down the response question on the board for your Video Response Journal #3 (U11)

Agenda:

1. You will receive a Book Annotating with Sticky Notes guide and a stack of sticky notes
2. You will receive a QQVS chart (L11)
3. You will receive a Night Plot Diagram (L12)
4. We will assign Night for our class novel
5. In class, we will read Chapter 1 together. 
6. You will be tracing one of these themes:  (Pick 1 to trace using your Sticky Notes)
• Faith
• Power
• Love
• Hate
7. Every time we either read a chapter in class or you are assigned one for homework you will be expected to annotate. I am looking for at least 4 post it notes that contain/comment on one of the aforementioned ideas located on your Book Annotating handout.  You will use at least 1 sticky note to identify a quote that supports one of your chosen themes.  The full theme will not be visible to you until you finish reading.
• Your 5th post it note will be a “power line”. 
• What is a “power line”?
• A “power line” is a sentence or a couple of sentences that contain figurative language (simile, metaphor, onomatopoeia, understatement, hyperbole, alliteration, verbal irony, etc.).
• These are called “power lines” because they make the writing more powerful.
• This particular post it should be titled Power Line so that it is easier to find when you are asked to share.
• Your “power line” is NOT a literary element (foreshadowing, dramatic irony, plot, setting, conflict, etc.)
8. When we finish Night, you will add all of your sticky notes to notebook paper for your next Notebook Check (L13)  -But not until we finish reading.  All sticky notes go inside your novel.
9. 5 sticky notes min.= 1 for your chosen theme, 1 for Power Line, 3 for any other significant annotating elements as mentioned on your handout
