Great job today; I enjoyed the medley of presentations that we saw.
Slaughterhouse group did a great job of conveying how Vonnegut's life is revealed through the text. I am pleased that everyone has a good grasp of Vonnegut's life and works now. Grab another of his books for summer reading:)
Cuckoo's Nest Group, wow! You did an amazing job of capturing the raw emotions felt by the characters in your book through your innovative, creative exercise. I enjoyed participating in the activity and actually considered doing something similar for my own teaching practices--Great example of an effective lesson--how to teach!
Sirens of Titan Group also did a great job of creating an activity that entertained the class with great acting and a fun script:) Like the other Vonnegut group, you also gave the class a very vivid picture of who Vonnegut was and gave an in-depth view of how satire was used in the book.
Catcher in the Rye: Excellent job knowing your character! Everyone had a solid grasp of who Holden was as a person and the psychological events that happened to him contributed to the overall meaning of the work.
 
I have to have AP Goodbye Packets now:) otherwise, you will not make it into the book:(
