I Know Why the Caged Bird Can’t Read…It’s a bird
Read the introduction to the education section on page 87 (only a page) and then read “I Know Why the Caged Bird Cannot Read” by Francine Prose on page 89.
Then, blog (or write if your blog is still buggy) the anwsers to Questions for Discussion numbers 1-2 and Questions on Rhetoric and Style numbers 1-3 and 6-9.
Have a great weekend!

So, like, what’s going on?
Here’s the deal. Every so often on the AP Lang test, you will see a prompt in the free response section that does not have an accompanying text (don’t think this is going to happen on the synthesis question, though). For these questions, you must have prior knowledge of issues and events to draw on to form and support your argument. To aid in that endeavor, we are going to institute a consistent practice. Every Monday, 3 people will be responsible for bringing in a news or op-ed piece that they found interesting during the past week. They will need to share it with the class, educating them on the issue and its context.

UPDATE
UPDATE: They had a bug in the system today due to their new forum feature that they say they have fixed. I posted the assignment here as well. We’ll still use this blog, not Noodle Strikes Back.
