Agenda:

Author Background
Read New Text
1. Journal
Why does Lee think it’s especially unfortunate that his mother got stomach cancer?
2. Vocab Revisit
Yesterday we did not complete filling out the vocabulary list. We will need these words again as we finish today. Let's finish defining and get ready to read!
3. Finish Reading
- Our final text of the quarter is called "Coming Home Again."
- We started this yesterday and we will finish reading it as a class today.
- There are questions in Google Classroom called "Navigating the Waters: Coming Home Again" for you to answer.
- You do not need to use the RACE format, but just answer the questions in your own words.
- You may work with your table partner(s).
- We're going to work one last time on theme this quarter.
- You will be using this handout to characterize Lee, consider the events of the story, and ultimately come up with a soundtrack for this memoir by Lee.
- You will share lyrics from your soundtrack with the class on Friday during our Socratic Discussion.
Reminders:
- It's the last week of the quarter. Be sure your grades are caught up in Powerschool and see me if you have questions.
- Tomorrow is the last day I will be able to accept late or missing work. Please see me if you need help!
