You have 20 minutes to read silently in The Pearl to be sure you have read through chapter 4. You can also use this time to complete your Triple Entry Journal.
Many of you seemed to be unclear about the golden line. Here is an example of one you could have chosen from Chapter 4:
"Kino," she said huskily, "I am afraid. A man can be killed. Let us throw the pearl back into the sea" (57).
For starters, I can think of many questions that this quotation inspires:
Why is she so afraid?
What does she mean that "a man can be killed"?
Why would she want to throw this great fortune back into the sea? Why is this the best solution?
Would I feel the same way as Juana if I were in her position?
Would I feel the same way as Juana if I were in her position?
Also, I can see many BIG IDEAS here:
Sometimes getting what you want can be a kind of curse.
Having wealth doesn't necessarily solve your problems; often it creates bigger ones.
THIRD COLUMN: Students in class will switch journals so they can respond in the THIRD COLUMN to the golden line or answer any of the student questions from the SECOND COLUMN.
HOMEWORK: Chapters 5 & 6 (and another triple entry journal) are due next Friday, the 1st.
