English 10

Today I handed out a sheet entitled 'Examinable Terms and Devices in Literature' from the BC Education website . We went over and discussed many/most of the terms. We've encountered most of them either this year or last in English class. Students were advised to study these words and keep this handout for studying purposes for their English 10 final exam.

Students handed in their short story assignments.

Students read quietly and worked on Chapter 14 questions on side board.

Florina, you can print off the 'Terms' sheet by going to this linkhttp://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/exams/specs/grade10/en/09_terms_device.pdf

Chrysalids novel test on Thursday.

Next unit will almost certainly be a study of the contemporary novel Speak by Laurie Halse-Anderson. We'll begin this at the end of the week. Florina, do you have a copy of this?
