Day 1 THE CATCHER IN THE RYE

Do Now: Esperanza - from The House on Mango Street - is a memorable first person narrator. Who are other narrators that you've found to be memorable? What qualities do they exhibit?

Today's Learning Target(s): 
I will be able to define what an unreliable narrator is and provide examples of how or why they are unreliable.
I will know that I have hit the learning target when...
-I can explain in my own words what an unreliable narrator is and why authors use them.
-I can describe qualities of unreliable narrators by activating my prior knowledge of unreliable narrators I already know (like Esperanza).

Agenda:

1. our thoughts on adolescence
2. narrators and reliability
3. beginning the novel

HW: read chapter one and post on the blog
