Gallery Walk Critique In a Gallery Critique, the work of every child is displayed in the classroom. We first look at all of the work silently before giving comments, and the focus is primarily positive--students select examples from the gallery that impress them and we discuss why. Not only do students see a variety of models, but we have a chance as a class to set the tone for our standards of quality. Project Work Time Please continue working on your drafts.

Learning Targets 1) Students will take notes on the key concepts of the Vietnam War. 2) Students will review the project rubric, examine tribute work, and start working on their perspectives. Kahn Academy Lecture: Vietnam War Overview We are watching this video to identifiy the larger key concepts and terms that are related to the Vietnam War. You, dear student, can put these notes under your "Cold War Notes." Feel free to start a new section and call it "Vietnam War" notes. As always, take copious notes! With both classes' powers combined, we came up with the following list. Are we missing anything?
Vietnam Project Rubric Take several minutes to look at this rubric that we designed together. 1) Notice that you are required to turn in a minimum of 3 rough drafts in addition to your final draft.

Read both : ) Starter 5 1) Write a story from your break with either a formal, informal, playful, ironic, optimistic, or pessimistic tone. 2) Why do we tell stories? 3) What essential truth about the Vietnam War are you thinking about conveying? How are you thinking of doing this? Today's Learning Targets: 1) Students will read and annotate The Things They Carried for 20 minutes. Checking for Chapter 7 annotations on Tuesday. 2) Students will identify descriptive language in a portion of Chapter 7. 3) Students will identify explicit prescriptions (what the author claims war stories should be). 4) Students will start taking detailed notes on the Vietnam War with particular attention being paid to the First Indochina War and French Colonialism. The Things They Carried Reading/Annotating Time Students will read and annotate The Things They Carried for 20 minutes. Checking for Chapter 7 annotations on Tuesday. Diving Into Chapter 7 of The Things They Carried 1. In groups of 3-4 students will be assigned 3-4 page excerpts of the chapter. They will read their portion chapter and identify:1) Prescriptions = paying attention to what war stories should be according to the passage, 2) Descriptions = paying attention to sensory language, 3) Things That Stand Out (at least 2) 2. Groups will share their Prescriptions & Descriptions lists with the class. As groups share, the class will create a complete list of Prescriptions & Descriptions. 4. Students will review definitions of literary elements: tone (the writer's attitude toward his readers and his subject; his mood or moral view. A writer can be formal, informal, playful, ironic, and especially, optimistic or pessimistic.) and style (the manner of expression of a particular writer, produced by choice of words, grammatical structures, use of literary devices, and all the possible parts of language use. Some general styles might include scientific, ornate, plain, emotive.). 5. Reviewing our class list of Descriptions and the "things that stand out," we will note indicators of tone and style in the chapter. 6. Based on our reading and our class lists, the class will discuss the author's goals in this chapter. Questions for reflection include: What senses are emphasized in this chapter? Why would the author emphasize listening (especially in Mitchell Sanders' story about the Listening Patrol)? Are any aspects of what makes a true war story more important than others? Were all (or any) of the war stories O'Brien included in the book "true"? Why does O'Brien care about truth? Why would a reader care? Does it matter to you if these stories are true? Why or why not?

If you were absent or didn't catch these in class, you are responsible for watching the video and defining them.
