Multicultural Literature Unit 4 Non-fiction, Fiction and Poetry
Do Now • SSR for 15 minutes • Write one journal entry for 5 minutes
Migration Interview Questions • Take out your Migration Interview Questions from over Thanksgiving break • You have 10 minutes to share as a lit circle group your answers!
The House on Mango Street • Is composed of vignettes • Vignettes are different than normal chapters, the form of the text that we are used to from our previous novels
What is a Vignette? *You should be taking notes in your MCLit journal!* Write the DATE on the top of your notes • A vignette is a short, detailed scene that focuses on one moment or gives a particular insight into a character, idea, or setting • Vignettes are often compared to a snapshot! • Like a snapshot, a vignette gives detailed scenes that focus on one particular moment or character, idea or setting
The House on Mango Street • In The House on Mango Street, the different sections capture moments, ideas or characters in short and descriptive pieces of writing
The House on Mango Street • We are going to read the first vignette together, out loud… • As we are reading, you are going to annotate the text • This means that you are going to constantly have your pen/pencil moving as you are reading • Ask questions for things you need clarification on • Make connections to what you are reading (text-to-text, text-to-self, and text-to-world) • Making inferences • In the margins, you will write any questions that you have, connections that you have made to the text, or your evaluations about what you are reading • If your pencil is not moving and you are not annotating, you are not TRULY reading!
Finish the Vignette • As a lit circle group, you now have 5 minutes to finish reading the vignette
Once you are finished reading… • You will have 3 minutes to answer questions 1-3 on your CWHW sheet • We will then spend 2 minutes going over the questions and answers!
CWHW Questions # 1-3 • 1. B • 2. C • 3. C
My home(s)… • You now have 7 minutes to write your own vignettes about the different homes that you have either lived in or the homes that are significant to you • I will be doing this, too! • We will then spend some time sharing our vignettes! • REMEMBER A vignette is a snapshot – you are writing a moment or description!
My Name • As a lit circle group, you have 5 minutes to read “My Name” • You each must read a paragraph and will alternate so that each voice can be heard • As you are reading, you are ANNOTATING • I will come around and if you are not THINKING as you are reading, and therefore not annotating, then you are off-task!
CWHW Questions • Independently, you have 3 minutes to answer questions 1-3
CWHW Questions • 1. B • 2. B • 3. C
