Hi everyone,
I can't believe how quickly three hours passed this afternoon. I sure wish we had more time! Discussions: We reviewed expression for asking for and giving and opinion, as well as for agreeing and disagreeing. We also had a short practice activity before our group discussions. Today, we focused on how to check for your group's understanding. You can use these expressions: a) Are you following me? b) Are we on the same page? c) Any questions, so far? If you're having trouble understanding your group leader, you can ask: a) Can you explain that again? b) What was that again? Literary Analysis: After the break, we continued with literary terms. In today's lesson, we review the terms protagonist, antagonist and setting through pair discussions about your graded reader. We also looked at climax and plot development. For your story's plot, there are different types of actions:
We also took a look at conflict, which is the tension in the novel. This is often caused by disagreement between two characters or a group of characters. There is usually more than one conflict in a novel: a. person against him/herself b. person against person c. group against group d. person / group against nature e. person / group against supernatural Homework:
