At the beginning of class, we went over the assignment details and rubric for the Graphic Excerpts of the Second Independent Novel. As students finish their independent novels, they need to be thinking about which scene they’d like to depict in graphic novel format. We will be working on this in class next week, and the entire project is due on Monday, December 12. Next we discussed more questions from Monday’s Persepolis reading as well as students’ answers to my journal prompt. The second half of class was time to read “The Wine” p. 103 and “The Cigarette” p. 111, complete graphic summaries for these two chapters, reading in independent novels, and getting caught up on or ahead in Persepolis if absent previously or novel-less today. Homework: keep making progress in independent novels and consider which scene to choose for graphic excerpts next week.
