Block days this week were spent getting familiar with our next unit, The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien, a book of related short stories about the Vietnam War. I went over Part 1 of the introduction power point (view by clicking the link below). We will carry on with the second part of this power point on Friday or Monday, which is an overview of the Vietnam War. We also completed a creative writing activity in class today, followed by some reading time. If you were absent, please click on the assignment below and turn in to me as soon as possible. Also, if you would like to download a template for the dialectical journal, you may do so below. For homework, please read the first story (titled "The Things They Carried"), pages 1-26, by Friday and complete the Guided Reading 1. Be sure to read the instructions!
