September 25, 2019

Periods 1 and 2:

In your notebooks, cut/paste this document. Add it to your table of contents. Here is my table of contents as a reference.

Directions:
CONSIDER EACH OF THE TWELVE STEPS AND THEIR DESCRIPTIONS:
NOTE passages to be used to support your thinking about Beowulf’s journey.
For example:

Example:
Ordinary World: Describe the hero's normal life at the start of the story, before the adventure begins. 

Prior to sailing to Denmark, Beowulf lives in Geatland and is in service to his leader, Hygelac.
“When he heard about Grendel, Hygelac's thane At the court of King was on home ground, over in Geatland. There was no one else like him alive. In his day, he was the mightiest man on earth, high-born and powerful,” (15, 194-199)
Notice how I cited the page number and lines. 

I am also not expecting you to finish because we have not finished the book, but you should work up to the point where Beowulf would fight the dragon.

Periods 3 and 4:
Symbols presentations.
Remember: connect the symbol's meaning to your examples.

Period 6:

Using Flashback
Copy/paste the NOTES page into your Notebook and add to your table of contents.
The Slides are for use later, and the other document (mentor texts with flashback) will be used in class.

In class, we viewed the Slides and completed the notes. Then, we looked at mentor texts and completed part two of the notes. Finally, you were asked to try out flashback in your own writing.

Remember: You will be doing writing response groups on your completed draft FRIDAY.
Tomorrow you will choose between going back to the landings (ends) of memoirs using mentor text and trying out interior monologue/dialogue.
