2nd term Literary Circles planning (3ºA) NEW DATES

Literary circles dates (on Tuesdays).  On Thursdays you have to hand in the Literary Circle worksheet of the story/stories whose LC is scheduled for the following Tuesday. (Obviously except for the first LC worksheet, that must be turned in the day before, January 9). I highly recommend reading the introduction by the author to each story, but the LC (and the LC worksheet) will only deal with the story itself. 

JANUARY 10: MEETING CEZANNE + I BELIEVE IN UNICORNS

JAN. 17:  I BELIEVE IN UNICORNS THE GIANT´S NECKLACE

JAN. 24: THE GIANT´S NECKLACE MY ONE AND ONLY GREAT ESCAPE

JAN. 31: MY ONE AND ONLY GREAT ESCAPE
MY FATHER IS A POLAR BEAR + THE SILVER SWAN

FEBRUARY 7: MY FATHER IS A POLAR BEAR + THE SILVER SWAN
THE MOZART QUESTION

FEB. 14: THE MOZART QUESTION WHAT DOES IT FEEL LIKE?

FEB. 21: WHAT DOES IT FEEL LIKE? HALF A MAN + FOR CARLOS, A LETTER FROM YOUR FATHER

FEB. 28: HALF A MAN + FOR CARLOS, A LETTER FROM YOUR FATHER SINGING FOR MRS PETTIGREW

MARCH 7: SINGING FOR MRS PETTIGREW. RECAP DAY (EXAM ON MARCH 9: LAST STORY NOT INCLUDED)
MARCH 14: SINGING FOR MRS PETTIGREW.

Remember  all these stories will be included in an exam at the end of the term where you must get at least a 30% correct to pass the subject, just like in the first term (again, only the stories, not the author´s comments, will appear in the exam). Happy reading!
