Classwork and Homework - November 7, 2011

We can learn a lot about a novel's protagonist by analyzing a secondary character. So, we are going to look deeply at Pocho.  Here's what I asked you to do in class:

• Highlight  or underline the word "Pocho" on every page it appears from page 1 - 63.  
• Carefully re-read pages 35-39 and pages 55-59.  Pay attention to everything Dreamer says and does. Annotate the text by putting a positive sign (+) for everything Dreamer does that is positive and a negative sign (-) for every negative thing she says or does.

As a reminder, for homework tonight you will:

• highlight or underline each place the word "Pocho" appears from pages 64-110 (the end of the book).  
•  Carefully re-read pages 64-66 and pages 71-72.  Pay attention to everything Dreamer says and does. Annotate the text by putting a positive sign (+) for everything Dreamer does that is positive and a negative sign (-) for every negative thing she says or does.
• There will be a quiz on the portions of the book you read today and for homework tonight
