Sorry folks, I'm sick again today. You should be familiar with the groups and rotations, so please help out the sub and do what you need to do. Here is the plan for Friday:
Independent - Work on your grammar module. Monday and Tuesday during my group I will have people test.
Collaborative Group - Work on characterization files. Especially discuss Atticus and Bob; they will be your topic for SGI with the teacher.
Small Group Instruction (with the teacher) - In literature, a foil is a character who shows a sharp contrast to another in several ways. This "opposite" character makes the other's qualities more apparent. The foil might show up as a side kick (Timon/Pumba to Simba) or an antagonist (Scar to Mufasa). The point of a foil is really to highlight certain traits of a more important character.
The most obvious foils in To Kill a Mockingbird are Bob Ewell and Atticus Finch. You already did an assignment like this with Calpurnia and Alexandria. Make another T-chart contrasting Atticus's personality with that of Bob Ewell.
MONDAY is the absolute last day to hand in any Poetry Second Chance projects, Dr. King paper revisions, or QT3 independent projects. Be sure to email me when you have something I need to check.
Thanks, gang! Have fun, and shoot me an email if you need anything!
