Agenda

1 - Starter #14: Vietnam Background Quiz

2 - View the PowerPoint. You don’t have to take notes, but whatever notes you take can be used on your next starter quiz.

3 - Assignment: TTTC: “Imitating On the Rainy River”.

  • To imitate the first example, pick an idea—a “theory”— that you agree or disagree with. 

  • To imitate the second example, pick something you very much are or aren’t—like a soldier, a scholar, an artist, or an athlete. Then choose “love” OR “hate” as your verb in all the sentences.

  • You have the rest of class to draft a personal narrative (real or fictional or in between) about a difficult decision. Try using the techniques we discussed!

    • You don’t need to include any mentor sentences, but you must include a semicolon used correctly. Please highlight it in your draft so I can check it!
