Today we'll talk about our names - their origin, their importance, their meaning, who made them, which names we prefer, and why. We'll then turn our attention to the book, read chapter 5, and discuss the name(s) of the main character.
Tonight's homework is to read chapter 4, and then 6-8. We will have time to start that in class.
Here is a link to the themes you named in the author's note yesterday - keep track of them as we go through the novel.
