When Holden goes to visit Phoebe, how does she react to his arrival? How are the two similar and how are they different? • Julius Caesar prompt- for this prompt make sure you know as much as you can about Caesar, Mark Antony, Cassius and Brutus. Be sure you know of actions or statements each man makes in order to write about their characters. Use review materials provided on My Big Campus.
Suggestions for Preparation… Continue taking good notes on the novel we’re reading- when you’re provided with note sheets, fill them out as you read at home. If I review certain notes in class, be an active listener and take note of additional important information; we won’t have time to review things repeatedly in class, so pay attention. Create a Quizlet account and make flashcards for the vocabulary words; take the practice tests on the words more than once. I will offer one-to-one assistance after school from 3:30-4:15 p.m. on May 23, 27 and 28; take advantage and come and see me with any questions.
