- Today we continued our study of academic vocabulary.
- Then we spent some time skimming and scanning the Unit Overview and Learning Focus for Unit 1 of Springboard's Senior English.
- Next, we spent a good amount of time discussing the six types of literary criticism we'll explore: archetypal, historical, feminist, Marxist, reader response, and cultural.
- Lastly, we spent a few minutes looking at the first summative assessment we'll do for this unit: Creating a Photo Essay. We started to "unpack" what we'll need to be able to do to successfully create a meaningful photo essay.
Homework: study your academic vocabulary, knowing that you could have a quiz at any time. :)
