As I've piloted this quarter in my classroom, I've observed a couple of things. First, the objective reads to review previously introduced figurative language/literary techniques, but it doesn't spell out what those are, so the teacher has to go back to the K-8 GLE's to find those. We need to spell them out. Also, the word "review" doesn't hold students accountable for anything. We need to use language that describes what students are to do in relationship to those literary techniques. Last, propaganda techniques are in first quarter, but they aren't EoC-assessed, so why not move them to fourth quarter, after EoC?
