Announcement

I want to have a copy of your recent Powerpoint presentation. Will those students who did not attend Saturday’s class please bring their USB with their “book and movie” presentation to class next Friday (Dec. 21st), please? Thank you. 

Homework

Redo your book and movie presentation. Makeup class will be on Saturday Dec. 15th  (not Dec. 8th as I announced in class.) For presentation guidelines, see last week’s blog post here.

Everyone must do their book and movie presentation twice. If you did your book-and-movie presentation Nov 30th or earlier, please do it again on Dec. 14th or 15th (Saturday, makeup class).

• You must
  • include historical background and
  • say what readers can learn about American history from the movie or the book (or both).
  • Give the key points.
    • A point is “the important or essential thing”.
    • A key point is “the most important or essential thing” about the movie and the book.
