Friday, May 4

Objective: SWBAT describe how death can be viewed as a symbol in the first chapter of “Annie John.”

Do-Now: Why do you believe Annie seems obsessed with death in this chapter?  Why is she excited when a girl in her school dies?  Why do she enjoy attending funerals of people she doesn't know?  What do Annie's actions in this chapter show you about her?

Today: 1) Class will finish reading "Figures in the Distance" from "Annie John."

2) Students will complete questions for "Figures in the Distance."

Exit Slip: Death is a common theme/symbol in this chapter.  What do you believe death might symbolize (represent) to Annie?  How is death used as a theme in this chapter?
