1. Warming up with three good things and updating your virtue charts
2. Find someone who read the same speech/essay that you did last week (Booker T. Washington or W.E.B. DuBois) talk through it:
- Which parts did you understand? Explain them to each other.
- Which parts confused you? Form questions about them and talk through them.
- Which THREE lines were the most central to this text? Why?
3. Mental jousting with yesterday's speeches by Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois
- Find a partner who read the OTHER speech/essay (NOT the same one you did).
- We'll use mental jousting to teach each other the speeches and discuss them.
4. Becoming groups of three to synthesize the points of view of Washington, DuBois, and Hughes using a big Venn diagram (if you can do this well, we'll skip the reading quiz tomorrow)
5. Introducing your "Harlem Renaissance Mini Projects" and gathering a little background info
HW:
1. Continue looking through your Fences vocabulary on www.quizlet.com to prepare for a short quiz on Wednesday.
2. By Friday, please watch the Harlem Renaissance documentary linked below. It will give you the background on the Harlem Renaissance that you need to succeed this week. You can start the documentary 15 minutes into it.
*WARNING: If you choose to watch the first 15 minutes (not required), there are upsetting photographs of lynchings between minutes 5 and 7.*
So you could watch about 15 minutes a night, you could watch it all in one gloriously informative off hour, or you could FLIP class--you can watch parts of the film in class and do the in-class stuff for homework. Do what works for you and your schedule.
Documentary link: Making a Way Out of No Way
On Friday, you will be asked to take about 15 minutes to fill out a reflection sheet on the documentary. It will be divided into Level 1, 2, and 3 thinking. As long as you watched the documentary, you will be just fine. No need to memorize anything.
