Bookmarks Today we will begin the reading process. The first reading task are the assigned chapters listed below (roughly 20 pages each). For each set of reading assigned, you will complete a bookmark. These bookmarks can be found on the bookshelf in the white slidder bin if you desire to read ahead in the novel (which is always encouraged!). We are going to spend some time reading in class today; HOWEVER, this will not be the norm. You are EXPECTED to read for at least 20 minutes every night as home learning. Characterization: Characterization is the analysis of characters in a novel. We analyze characters to understand humans, to understand ourselves. There are numerous ways to analyze characters. Each group will consider one of these ways. First, create a visual symbol that represents this type of characterization. Second, make a statement about why we study this component of characterization. What does it help us understand about the character? Select one representative of your group to record the symbol and statement on the Characterization sheet. Select one representative to verbally explain your symbol and statement to the rest of class.

Pick up your binder. Add the Novel Study Survey handout to the T1: Past Perspectives section of your binder. Novel Study For the first unit in Social Perspectives, you will join a group of your fellow students to investigate, analyze a novel and decade in American history. Today we will watch four videos that consider important aspects of the novels and decades you have to choose from. While watching the video, please respond to the questions on the handout in note-taking format (this means you do not need to write in complete sentence, just need to be able to recall import thoughts, ideas you had while watching the video). We will discuss your responses and questions at the end of each video as a group.
