Today in class:

We discussed where we are in the novel and course.  In table groups students summarized the novel in 5 sentences or less.

We read our novel and finished the first section of the novel.

Students were then given time to find their vocabulary words and start sorting out Beatty’s explanation of world history.

Homework:

1. Find 5 new words and their definition.
2. Write Beatty’s explanation of world history in your own words.
3. What is good about this world?  What is bad?
4. What do you think the title of the second section means?
