I was so scared that it was going to be chilly at school today, but it’s nice and warm! Maybe it’s because the building had time to warm up all day on Monday? At least you had one more extra day to read The Metamorphosis!

We have two things on the calendar today: The Sesame Street Quiz and I Read the Book, Now What?

The Sesame Street Quiz needs some explanation, so if you aren’t here today, you still might need to come into a KOnnect for me to explain it.

First of all, take a look at this slide. Which character doesn’t belong? There really isn’t a wrong answers – it all depends on how you justify it. This is my answer: In this quartet, Mulan is the character who does not belong. She is a warrior who fights to protect her country against the Huns, breaking gender norms for her family, her country, and her culture. Ariel, Pocahontas, and Jasmine are heroines of their own story and battle their own fights, but they are not trained warriors. Mulan disguised herself a man to learn how to to fight both physically and with strategy.

But, today a student had an answer that I was jealous of: Jasmine doesn’t belong because she is not the main character of her movie

On this quiz, you will do two things: One slide one, you will exaplain which one of your words doesn’t belong and why, making sure that you connect it back to the novella. One slide two, create a Sesame Street Quiz over The Metamorphosis using four words of your own choosing – you do not need to explain them. Just write them down. 🙂

Then, start to work on I Read The Book, Now What assignment that is due on Sunday. My goal is that this will help you with the essay over The Metamorphosis next week.
