Collect Evidence
1. Reading Progress Update
Complete the READING PROGRESS FORM about your current book, which should be #8.
Film:
Friday we watched the exciting conclusion of Night of the Hunter. Harry Powell did not get away with his crimes as Montresor did. What impact does his arrest have on the theme?
Speaking of theme, remember the quote in the beginning, "Beware of false prophets in sheep's clothing, for really they are ravening wolves." How does that fit with what you know about the film now? (Don't get confused between prophet and profit. They mean different things.)
Collecting Evidence:
Just as you did for "Cask of Amontillado," today you will work with your partner to describe and explain scenes from Night of the Hunter.
- Use this FORM to submit your responses.
- Use the notes you took while watching the film.
- Remember that your answers will be shared with all of my classes to support your work when we begin writing our comparative analysis essays.
- Use complete sentences, please.
Movie at Lunch:
Remember if you missed part of Night of the Hunter, I am re-showing it during advisory and lunch.
Reminders:
- The first grading period ends 3/15. Check power school to see if there is anything you can do in any of your classes to bring up your grades.
- Talking to your teachers helps, too! Let me know if I can support you in any way.
