Night and Vocab Test
On October 4th, you will have a Night test, which will have a section on vocabulary as well.
Chapter Work (20 points each time)
You will do chapter work for Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapters 4-5 (together), Chapters 6-7 (together), and chapter 8-9 (together). That’s a total of 5 chapter work entries, 100 points total.
For each, please do the following.
- Theme tracking: Throughout Night, there are several themes that Elie touches on again and again. The themes are:
- Universe of Obligation
- Faith/Religious Belief
- Night
- Treatment of Jews/Dehumanization of Jews
Your job is to keep track of these themes, either using post it notes or a list. Each night, find 2 quotes, and each quote should be on a different theme out of the four listed above. Try to find quotes that clearly and deeply make you think about these themes. Make sure to write the theme on the post it note, so you can use them later for the quotes project! Alternately, you can use different colored post it notes for different themes. As you continue reading, you may want to narrow your search down to quotes related to just two themes, so that you have a lot of quotes on those themes to use in the Quotes Project.
- Chunks: Each night, pick ONE quote that you’ve post it noted or added to your list. For that quote, write a TS, the quote with a quote intro (your CD) and two CMs about how Elie’s feelings on this particular theme are changing, growing, or deepening.
Sample TS: Due to the horrible circumstances in the concentration camps, Elie begins to lose his belief in Judaism.
