First ,adding to our list of literary terms, we located alliterative language in the novel and discussed how the technique added meaning to the sentence. We then addressed the vocabulary words used in the first 6 chapters of the novel . I discussed the part of speech for each word and then assisted Bobby in placing a number of the words in full sentences that reflected that he knew the meaning and proper usage of the word. Last, we worked on the writing assignment from last night's homework. We addressed creating a crisp topic sentence, and using textual support followed by proper MLA citation. For homework due on Tuesday, I assigned reading the next 3 chapters of the novel.
