9th Grade - Students started by sharing the tragic scenarios they had written with the class, and then students voted on which scenario best fit the criteria of a tragedy.
Today, the goal of class was to start reading Antigone. Since this is the third part of a trilogy, part of class was dedicated to going over the plotlines of Oedipus Rex and Oedipus at Colonus, along with a visual family tree to get a better understanding of how these characters are connected.
As a class, we read through the prologue and the opening of Scene 1, and will continue on monday.
10th Grade - First, sophomores took a vocabulary test over the commonly misused words that were studied this past week. We also had the last few student presentations, with most periods ending on The Scottsboro Trial, since the trial scene in TKAM is heavily based on this
Students read through the script of the TKAM film to finish this section of the novel as a play, and we read through the majority of the scene. Students who missed class need to read Chapter 17-21 to catch up.
