We're AP Lit Nerds and Loving It: January 16, 2014

Focus: What's the best way to approach Invisible Man through writing?

1. Warming up: Discussing your essays in small groups

2. Workshopping your essays as a class (or however you like to do this with Mrs. Makovsky)

3. Wrapping up: Before giving your essays back to Mrs. Makovsky, please write me a little note on the front that states the following:

• What's something helpful you got from class today that you could apply to your essay?
• What would you like me to focus on when I grade your essay? In other words, what do you think you need the most help with?

HW:
1. Read Chapters 1 and 2 of Beloved and compose a one page response to the following question: How is 124 (the house) a character in the novel so far?  What kind of character is it?  What are the most revealing/significant details about the house?

2. Finish your poetry packets, por favor.
