For the ill and the absent-minded -

Here, you will find a very brief summary of class discussions and activities, lists of assigned readings, and links to other resources. The posts are reminders of what we covered in class and/or of what you missed by being absent physically and/or mentally. Please post all work in your digital folders via Google Drive. If we are required to work remotely, the posts will give directions for the day's activities, and let you know when we will meet via Google Meets. Please read the posts, talk with your classmates, and do the practise work as it suits the timing at home. If you're still confused, please email me: ms.ignacio@stpats.bc.ca

(NB: I do not condone class absences - you must be present, in class, actively listening and participating whenever possible. Always communicate your absences with the school office as well as with me. It is your responsibility to make arrangements for missed learning opportunities. You MUST meet all assignment deadlines. If we have to meet via Google Meets, please make a note of the QR link posted in Room 205 for the meeting id and passwords.)

F - The one with Mr. Cole.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How does precise language structure transform a simple surface reading into clear and compelling insight?

Learners read Galsworthy's "The Japanese Quince," then posted a one sentence summary of plot in parallel form to the a digital "parchment". Mr. Cole reviewed the submissions and asked learners to reconsider parallel structure.

Mr. Cole distributed the Short Story Checklist (see the link on the left) and learners used the rest of the period to make some preliminary notes and text annotations.

(I apologize that I wasn't able to be present at what was supposed to be our first meeting!)

NEXT CLASS: mechanicals, Antigone
