11th Grade (All Classes)
11th Grade IB Lit: Today we began by brainstorming stereotypes of Native Americans. We discussed how these stereotypes have been wide spread throughout movies, especially Westerns. We also noted the use of enjambment and anaphora contributing to the speaker’s fatigue. After- the class discussed “I Hated Tonto (Still Do)” and analyzed accordingly. We focused again on reality/comic contributions to sarcasm- and as always to the form of the piece. We watched two clips and further discussed overall message.
