Objective:  I can analyze how an author's choices contribute to its overall structure and meaning as well as its aesthetic impact by rereading or reading another of one of my favorite author’s books (RL11-12.5).  
Agenda:

• Entry Task:  Reread your introduction from your anthology, paying close attention to what you listed as what you like to read.  Did you list a favorite author or a favorite book? If no, who would you select?  Anything goes: fiction, nonfiction, short story, poem, essay, or speech.
  
• Share out favorite authors and write on board
  
• Review directions for Letters About Literature
  
  • Watch video
    
  • Consider which authors on our board would work for you now knowing the requirements
    
• Reread or select a new reading from your favorite author.  
  
  • Review directions for Favorite Author Brochure
    
• Exit Task:  Go to library to check out book.  If not there, you need to get it as soon as possible and begin reading!  We will have 25 min. Of in-class reading time for the next 3 Fridays (you will also have Thanksgiving Break).
