Today I handed out copies of "1984" along with our Lit Circles Packet  Lit circles are a new way that we are going to be looking at this novel.

It is important for students to follow the schedule carefully and complete their jobs. Everyone will do each job once. It is also important for students to keep their packets in tact to turn in at the end of the novel for an overall final grade.

Below are some resources to help students with some of the jobs in their packet:

Update from 3/30

Keep following the schedule of when jobs and reading assignments are due. Make sure you are doing the correct job for the correct section.

Also, make sure you are doing the jobs in a thorough manner.

Let me know if you have questions.

Also, if you miss class, you have to do a free journal entry that will replace that points you miss for not being their for the discussion.

ALSO, if you miss a class, you must send your job BEFORE the class you miss, so that I can share it with the group in your absence.

Important information for 3/30

We won't have class next week on 3/23 because of the field trip, but the students should still be completing their scheduled jobs that are due on that day.

Additionally, they should be completing their jobs due the week of 3/30.

Essentially, we are following the same schedule, even though we won't meet one of the weeks, and we will discuss what is due 3/23 and 3/30 on 3/30.

Let me know  if you have questions.

If you will not be in class 3/30, please send a pictures of your jobs BEFORE class that day so that I can share your jobs with the class. YOU MUST ALSO WRITE ONE JOURNAL ENTRY for pages 85-168 that will serve as your discussion participation points.
