SOAPSTone and Précis

Book Presentations 

We have a couple of make-up presentations from people who were absent before break, so let's pay attention to our classmates and their book recommendations! 

Read a new article: 
  • Click HERE to download a copy of the new article. Find it and read it. Right click on words you need to know and choose "define." 
  • Discuss the article at your table. What does it say? What does it mean? Why does it matter?
SOAPSTone and Precis: 
  • After reading the article, work with your partner to complete this SOAPSTone Form.
  • Note that the form contains a précis assignment. Do that together.
Reminders:
  • Are you reading Book #9? 
  • Have you checked out your book?
  • If you want to make up your Poe/Laughton essay from before break, schedule a writing conference with any one of your English teachers before you request a regrade.
