ECA tomorrow. Not much you can do to prepare for it other than maybe review your Tool Time notes. Mostly you'll be reading passages and identifying themes and supporting evidence. It does count as a grade so you want to do your best. Just relax, think about all you've done this year and you should do fine.
Today we took the poetry quiz. Did you prepare properly? Were you able to identify the the different types of poems? Did you read the poems completely? That will help tremendously. ISTEP is in less than two weeks. You need to read th epoems completely there as well. Also remember that this material could easily show up on the ISTEP test. Don't forget it.
We discussed a difficult prompt today and then successfully related it to the Holocaust. It allowed you to see why death might have been very enticing for some people going through what they were going through. The images we saw drove home how malnourished and mistreated they were. Survival became a choice that some were not strong enough to make.
We will pick up where we left off today once we complete the ECA tomorrow.
See you soon.
