Tuesday and Block Day

Tuesday we completed page 116 in our vocabulary books
Block day 150 and 164

We discussed My Papa's Waltz (470) and At The San Francisco Airport (466). For both, we annotated the poems in our book as we TPCASTT with our partners and with the class as a whole.

Block Day we discussed THE TEMPEST.
Characters
Brothers taking power from Brothers
Isolation on an island
Prospero's Fatal Flaw

I planted the idea...should the book have been titled THE ISLAND...keep in mind as you finish reading.
We'll discuss literal and figurative meanings of the island and tempest after you finish the book!
