Today, I paired you up to work on reviewing the poem "Billy Paris" which was due today. We then discussed the nine steps, examining how to arrive at the theme (brainstorm topic words to arrive at what the message might be; make it more universal/general). I then gave you the following notes on how to answer multiple choice questions effectively.
1. Highlight and define unknown words in the question.
2. Using a different coloured highlighter than already used in your analysis, highlight the passages referred to in the question.
3. Use process of elimination to answer the questions (cross out answers which are not possible).
4. As you are crossing out answers, think about why each one is being eliminated.
For tomorrow - and for this whole unit - you must have four different coloured highlighters. This was expected and part of your supply list.
