By the end of class, students will review AUTHOR'S TONE, MOOD and STYLE and practice multiple choice questions in order to prepare for the Keystone exam tomorrow an Thursday.
DO NOW
Multiple choice practice - random questions. Use multiple choice strategies to choose the best answer or at least cross two out. You can do this even without the passages for almost all the questions on the handout.
Direct Instruction
author's style and tone
TONE PPT
Guided / Independent
TONE handout - note that often an author will use expressions and figurative language to express a certain tone so look for this when trying to decide.
Style Handout - notice the longer, more complex sentences - this is a more formal style. See how more formal = more serious TONE?
Shorter, simpler words are more informal. See how it creates a more LIGHT-HEARTED tone?
Check for Understanding
Individual student checks during independent work
Closure
review
Exit PASS
Distinguish - tell the difference between
Essential = Necessary
Non - Essential = not necessary
