3. Film review annotation. We all annotated the film reviews we printed out from home. If you were absent, you should annotate a film review of The Hobbit you find on the internet.
4. Film review structure. As a class, we figured out the structure of most film reviews.
5. Writing your own review! We wrote our own reviews in the computer lab using this sheet as a guide: Writing a Movie Review. If you were gone, you should write your own review at home. It should be about 1-2 pages, double-spaced. If you did not see the film, write a book review instead.
Great job today, everyone! The reviews are really entertaining!
At the end of class, all students turned in their notes from the field trip.
HW: Finish reading The Hobbit over break. You can do 2 motif annotations per chapter instead of 5, just to relieve the stress a bit!
