- Propaganda Project progress check and Propaganda techniques practice. Students answered questions concerning their progress on the propaganda ad project assigned last class. They also identified propaganda techniques used in commercials and magazine ads and were given an example of an original product and ad. The example below (product = Christmas decorations) uses "bandwagon" ("don't be the only one to miss out). A picture of happy children emptying stockings would employ the technique of "transfer." A picture of a celebrity decorating a tree with the ornaments would employ the technique of "testimonial."
- "Get into My Head" graphic organizer for character thoughts and feelings. As students read, they will fill in the heads (below) with characters' thoughts and feelings. Quotes are not needed. They can put these in their own words.
- Students finished reading Assignment #1 (through "put a stop to his plan" on page 32). Study questions should be answered to prepare for a quiz on Tuesday, December 16. Vocabulary will also be on the quiz.
- Post-reading questions. Students answered the following in their journal: **What did you learn about the hound?**What are the schools like? Pros? Cons? **Describe the "past" according to Clarisse? **What new questions does Clarisse ask Guy?**How does he react to them? **How has Guy changed so far?
- Students had the rest of class to work on their project and complete study guide questions for reading assignment #1.
