Hello class!
We will be starting a unit analyzing John Steinbeck's classic novel Of Mice and Men. The themes, skills, and literary terms we will study through this novel will provide a foundation for our class that we will constantly refer to throughout the year. Through this blog, we will come together as a learning community to share resources, discuss our thoughts, check assignments, and display our learning!
So pay attention, roll up your sleeves, and get ready for work!
Your first assignment is to reply to this blog post with a 150-200 word reflection in response to the following question:
Why is it important for people to have dreams for their future - goals, plans, and hopes that they work toward? What is the role of dreams in a person's life?
Work hard and get smart, scholars!
Sincerely,
Mr. Mackin
MR. MACKIN'S 9TH GRADE CLASS
