I am so pleased to see that most of you have completed the first set of assignments for our new uit on Romantic poetry. I reviewed your answers to Blake's poems and you all did quite well.
This week you will look at William Wordsworth and his poetry. Again, I will assign a video on Wordsworth for you to view and then one of his poems and questions to follow.
I have also uploaded an audio of the poem being read aloud to you. USE THIS! Foloow along with the poem and words to "Tintern Abbey" on your screen, and follow along as it is read to you. This will help you to understand the poem so much more. You should read through/listen to it read aloud at least two times BEFPORE attempting the questions. And if you need to read through/listen to it again, then do so.
Please email/share your responses with me.
As always, if you have any concerns, please let me know ASAP. These poems are difficult so let me know if you have any questions. Call, text or email me and I will hep in any way possible.
Take care and continue to be safe,
Mrs. J. xo

I hope you are all continuing to do well. This week I have assigned a great movie for you to watch. The movie is called, "The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas". It is a very moving film showing the Holocaust through the eyes of an innocent child.
Please watch the film and answer the questioned I have uploaded below. You may wnat to have the questions close by when you are watching the mivie or if you find this too distracting, you can answer them after you have finished watching it.
Please email the answers to the questions as soon as you can. The answers are due Monday, June 1.
Take care,
Mrs. J. xo

Well, I am so pleased to see so many of you enjoying The Outsiders novel. Although it would have been so much more enjoyable to read it together, I am glad that so many of you have taken it upon yourselves to listen/read the book while at home learning. Great job!
I am adding the next three chapters for you to read. I am also adding the assignments for you to complete. As per usual, please email me you responses. Also, if you have not sent me the work for "Nothing Gold Can Stay", please do so as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Take care and be safe,
Mrs. J. xo
