02.23 - Semester 01 Feedback / Roots Set 12

Today's class was focused on feedback from the first semester (quarters one and two as well as the midterm) and on set 12 roots and prefixes. The feedback on semester one was given through a Google form. However, to review this feedback, I made activity cards available and everyone selected an activity card or two that helped them to respond to the following questions:

"The Road" was our heavyweight text for looking at sentence structure and motif as they relate to the meaning of a text. How effective would you say this book was in helping us meet these goals?

How worthwhile would you say it was to read “The Road”?

Everyone had some time to respond to this question in their writer's journal and then we discussed the responses that people generated.

Next, a selection of people began providing feedback through the following Google form:
