Wednesday, AP Language

** Class, you do not need to bring your textbooks tomorrow.

I apologize, but I am going to have to miss tomorrow as well. You should work on either your response papers, your lit term presentations, your Frankenstein, or your terms (for the quizzes Friday). I will be in for the second half of tomorrow if you need me and will for SURE be here Friday.

CHANGE: Since I was absent today and you did not get your promised lab time, the response paper will now be due Friday. Make it good! :-) Remember, even though the format is not as structured, the level of professionalism must be high; make this a polished paper which demonstrates your ability to proof for mistakes, to write in MLA format, and to synthesis readings into one piece, using smoothly incorporated quotations as evidence.


Frankenstein: For Tuesday, read to page 51 in the Kaplan version. This is to the end of chapter I. The first words of page 51 are "When I had attained the age of seventeen...". I want you to do a mini-dialectical journal for this first reading: take three quotes that have a similar effect. Write about those quotes (incorporate some of your new knowledge of rhetorical devices). Typed, please.

Friday:
