English 2

During this class period, students completed their last discussion sheet over chapters 7-9 of Night. After discussion of the book was complete, students learned about Elie Weisel's life after his experiences in the Holocaust, including the fact that he won a Nobel Peace Prize in 1986. Next students read, discussed, and analyzed a poem written by survivor Sonia Schreiber Weitz called "My Black Messiah". To end class, students made folder organizers for their research papers, and we listened the biographies of a few of our "butterfly children".

Homework
  • Come to class with 3 sources for your research paper topic.
