For Thursday, make sure that you have your analysis post complete for Chapters Seven, Eight, and Nine.  This should be one post on its own.  Then you will complete the synthesis prompt for the Prologue through Chapter Nine.  Remember that the prompt for this synthesis post is:  What is the purpose of these motifs at this point in the novel?  Make sure that you have a clear thesis/main idea for your chapters and your motifs.  Remember to synthesize the opinions of your group and the information in the text. 

First Post - Instructions

Hello AP English III Students,

This is where you will be blogging about the motifs that you see within Invisible Man as well as the connections between these motifs and their relevance to the novel as a whole.  Remember that this will be a running project for you that you will complete as you read.

Your first task as a group is as follows:

1. Complete your group project, assigning roles and responsibilities to everyone in the group so that you can be successful.  Turn that in to me for a grade.
2. Setup your blog.  Give your blog a title that relates to the motifs that you will investigate.  Make sure that under settings you have added all of your groupmates and me as authors to the blog.  Make sure that your blog is public.
3. Complete your first two posts.
1. Your first post is your introduction post.  Snap a selfie and upload it into your post.  Introduce the members of your group (use a pseudonym, not your real name) and state what you'll be investigating in this blog and what you hope to achieve.
2. Your second post is your first analysis post.  Account for your motif in the Prologue, Chapter One, and Chapter Two.  State a quotation, page number, and explanation of how the quote is indicative of the motif.  Then, as a group, synthesize your opinions and findings to answer this question:  As of now, what do you think the purpose of these motifs is in the novel?

Your next post will be due when the next reading assignment is due.  Make sure that you have completed this.  In an hour we will begin our discussion on Chapter Two - make sure that you have this work as complete as you can in that time period.
