We began by looking at the poem, Select Samaritan, and answering the questions on the worksheet. We noted that the parents in the poem were remarkably racist, and although it was shown rather subtlely, they were rather horrible people. This worksheet was handed in.
We continued with our reading of the novel.
Students were given a final exam review booklet to work on.
Final exam will be on Thursday June 20th in the afternoon.
We watched the first 15 minutes of the movie The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. We will not have a big novel test on The Boy in the Striped Pajamas.
Students worked well on their Bruno paragraphs -- we'll work on this on Friday. This paragraph will be due on Monday.
