Lesson Outline
Briefly discussed Vlad's experience with ACT and what he learned from the experience.
Briefly discussed the "allegory" in his paper "Three Men in a Case." Went on to discuss the "allegory" in a book entitled Who Moved My Cheese? which I gave to Vlad to read at his leisure. Vlad Trump Paper (his portrait paper) in draft form still will be handed in.
Discussed the various types of narrators. Gave examples of each type. Discussed photo of bomb going off in a crowd of policemen. Discussed Narration Paper and which narrator Vlad would choose to narrate the story. His decision: to have one narrator for each "one-paragraph chapter" of a book of narrators. Very interesting choice. Ended with a half-hour of analyzing an essay (Sadlier Vocabulary Workshop, level E, Unit 7).
Assignment

Lesson Comments
Vlad likes intellectual challenges, likes associating ideas and pairing them up. Interesting: When Vlad was reading aloud, he stumbled on several words. For example, though he knows the definition of chaos, his sounding out of the work was so far off the mark that he did not recognized the word as "chaos."
