HOMEWORK FOR American Literature Periods 4 and 5

Today, we will explore Periods in American Literature before re-reading I, Too by Langston Hughes, sharing our levels of questions and Open Minds.  We will then read our class Article of the Week, Too Much Pressure by Colleen Wenke.  For homework, we will write our own version of I, Too due Thursday.
1. Be sure to write a rough draft, then a final draft of I,Too by Langston Hughes using your own experiences.  Be sure to follow the directions!
2. Select any 20 Academic Verbs and construct sentences with them demonstrating you understand how to use the word.  If you don't understand, copy the sentences from an online source, but change the names or situations to make them familiar to you.
3. Don't forget Parent Signature on new Independent Reading Program.
4. Look for a novel, if you haven't already found one for independent reading!
5. Continue to review Academic Verbs on our quizlet!
