New Unit: Hip Hop Goes Global
To help us get started, we're going to talk about what we know (or don't know) about Hip Hop.
Quick Write:
In your English Journal, respond to the following prompt:
- What influences does hip hop have in our society and our world?
- What is its message?
- Is it just music, or is it something more?
Respond to these questions with your own examples or observations from your experience.
Socrative:
Open SOCRATIVE and join with the room code we give you in class.
Reminders:
- If you were absent, be sure to finish the QuickWrite in your English Journal.
- Make-up Socratic Seminar for those absent 12/21 will be AFTER SCHOOL on WEDNESDAY 1/9. Be in room 357 by 2:25 to participate. Bring your preparation doc.
- You should be just about finished with Book #5. We will be writing about it soon.
- Finals start January 23rd!
- BRING HEADPHONES WEDNESDAY!
