Need to take AP Reading Quiz
9th period:
TJ, Anisa, Andrew, Kiera, Carolyn and David
HW: Read chapter 21 and write inferential discussion questions from two of the last three chapters (19, 20, 21).
Near the beginning of chapter 19, Hester, Dimmesdale and Pearl have met in the forest. After watching Pearl play and adorn herself with flowers, they remark on her spritely character. "Be the foregone evil what it might, how could they doubt that their earthly lives and future destinies were conjoined, when they beheld at once the material union, and the spiritual idea, in whom they met, and were to dwell immortally together?" (142)

Activity 1
- Review your annotations for chapters 19-20. Select one sentence from each of the chapters which you think is most significant or revealing.
- Write a 3-5 sentence explanation as to why the sentence you selected would be most useful if you had to write a one page essay about the novel and you could only use one quoted passage from this section of the novel as evidence. What would this sentence help you prove in your essay? Why would you make it your “#1 draft pick”?
Engaged Listening/Note-taking Mini-Lesson
ØAs we have our discussion today, make
note of two or three opinions/interpretations expressed by your classmates that
you find interesting or that give you a deeper understanding of the novel.
Consider the “generic themes” at play in the ideas expressed by your
classmates.
ØYou will write a two to three sentence
discussion summation that should grow out of the notes you take and which will
be submitted at the end of class today.
•Write
a concise but precise three to four
sentence analysis of a key passage from the homework reading—pages
136-161 of The
Scarlet Letter–that
can be connected with a key detail or description from an earlier section of
the novel.
•
In short, you will synthesize key excerpts from different parts of the text to
build a coherent and compelling claim about a central character, or theme, or
motif in Hawthorne’s novel.
