Wednesday

For those students who insist that the handout for "A Hanging" is not on the blog, please check the previous posting labeled "Wednesday, January 9" and click on the text "A Hanging." HA HA HA.

Wednesday

Prepare for your essay on Thursday (report to the TOK room) and for your orals Friday, Monday, and Tuesday.

Here are the handouts from Wednesday concerning "A Hanging" and "Marrakech" for those who might have been absent.

Finish writing your Orwell emulation.

 

Read “A Hanging” and note how Orwell makes a persuasive case.

You will all meet with me on Thursday, January 10, for the timed essay. You are responsible for all we have read this semester.

Orals begin Friday.

See the links at the right of this page for the entire Orwell packet consisting of seven essays.

Thursday

We are about to begin the Orwell essays. Be sure to sign up for a time for your oral commentary: the sign-up sheet is on my door.

Remember that we all meet together on January 10 for the timed essay.
