Today we finished watching "Akeelah and the Bee". Students should complete a plot outline for the film. (exposition, inciting incident, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution) Students should be able to identify each of these elements from the film in about one sentence.
Note: First period did not finish the film today. We will finish it tomorrow and the plot outline will be due on Monday.
Vocabulary Quiz Monday!!!
Words: benign, beneficial, invert, divert, revert, convert, predict, diction, dictate, and contradict
Students should make flashcards and study for the quiz on Monday. The words are all derived from one of three roots:
- ben/bene (good)
- vert (to turn)
- dict (to say)
