Hello Intellectuals!
Today, we started with a bell ringer AFTER we confused Doug by looking at definitions of four psychological disorders - Bipolar Disorder, PTSD, Schizophrenia, and Pathological Lying. We used the bell ringer to further discuss Holden's mental stability (and Sean's assessment of Mrs. Stallman's "ridiculous" line of questioning regarding Phoebe's existence - whether she is only an extent ion of Holden's attempt to make sense of his world.
We also spent some time on Poetry Out Loud - each student addressed the meaning and tone of his or her own poem.
Finally, we altered Mrs. Stallman's mental state by forgetting the full meaning of plagiarism (I have to speak in third person or else it becomes personal again!) So, remember: ANY time we use ideas that are NOT fully from our OWN BRAIN, we must cite our source...
I love you all....
Peace.
