- This week, students are DONE with Vocab! :)
- The Unit 4 Test is being given in class on Monday. All materials for the unit can be found under "Vocabulary & Handouts". We held a study session in class last Friday (instead of after school) so that all students had the chance to go over the study guide together.
- After the unit test, we will begin our study of the Victorian time period with Unit 5. Students will complete a textbook hunt & get background notes for the time period.
- Because the Victorian era's literature was characterized by the novel, we will not have time to actually read the novels in class. Instead, we will be doing a film study/analysis of Thomas Hardy's Tess of the d'Urbervilles. Students will keep up with their observations from the film on a chart as it is viewed in class. After we finish the film, we will write an analysis of how the issues of the Victorian era impacted the characters.
