Lesson 4

Students began the class by reading their personal novels.

We did some work with capitalization - the worksheet can be found in Teams (there will be a capitalization quiz on Monday/Tuesday next week).

We discussed verbal, dramatic, and situational irony (cartoons in Teams)

Students received a detailed Short Story Terms sheet, and we went over the first couple of pages - stopping at Foil Character - - we also talked about juxtaposition

We went over the short story diagrams for "For the Birds." 

At the end of class, students received a list of vocabulary for an upcoming story 

HOMEWORK: Students should write a definition for each of the words on the list, AND follow the definition with THEIR OWN sentence, which illustrates that they understand the meaning of the word.
