This week, as a class, we will continue to practice analyzing characters from
Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie through writing. We have discussed the types of characters and practiced discussing, using evidence from the text as support.
This week we will also begin analyzing the different parts of the plot in
Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie, and how different events in the novel progress the plot and connect to other portions of the plot. Once we have discussed, we will again begin practicing writing analyses of the different parts of the plot.
We will be having a test on character and plot analysis on Tuesday of next week. Study guides will be given Monday in class, so students can work on them and ask questions as they work.
As always, if you have questions, please contact me.
