Protecting Ourselves from Sadness: September 22, 2017

Focus: How are the characters in ELIC protecting themselves from sadness?

1. Warming up with a Friday Freewrite (scroll down to the bottom and find the Sep 21 prompt)

2. Giving you 20 minutes to read and journal; remember that by Tuesday, you need to have read through page 141 and have completed your journal entry on the blog

To clarify: By Tuesday, you should have THREE journal entries posted on your blog

• Journal #1: Pages 1-15 (we did this in class)
• Journal #2: Anywhere from pages 16-85 (you either did this Wednesday or Thursday night)
• Journal #3: Pages 86-141 (you can do this today, over the weekend, and/or on Monday)

*All journal entries right now should follow the same format: Three passages, each with 1-2 good questions.*

3. Watching the first twenty minutes of the film adaptation of ELIC to help you picture the characters and understand the plotline; use the film notes to guide your deep thinking

4. Submitting your movie notes to Mrs. Friis before you leave

HW:
Read through page 141 by Tuesday and complete your journal entry (three passages with questions on each). You will have 20-30 minutes of reading time on Monday to work on this.
