As prime minister, the Right Honorable Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill successfully led Britain through world War II. He described the achievement as his "walk with destiny" — a destiny for which he believed he had spent all his life in preparation. He was one of the great statesmen of world history. Often satirized as a bulldog, Churchill’s far-sightedness, toughness, tenacity, courage and will to win despite the odds, enlisted support at home and abroad. • Winston Churchill was an accomplished speaker, author, painter, soldier and war reporter. The mere sight of him, with the characteristic Cuban cigar in his mouth and two fingers raised in the “V for victory” sign, encouraged the population. He was John Bull, a British mythical character and the symbol of the common people, come to life. With a powerful command of the English language, he wrote histories and biographies. At 78, he won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Churchill served his country from 1895 to 1964. Churchill's youth and education • Winston was born the son of an eminent Tory politician, at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, England, on November 30, 1874. His father, Lord Randolph Churchill (1849-1895), was a leader in the Conservative party, and his mother was Lady Jennie Jerome Churchill (1854-1921), an American heiress. Mrs. Churchill was beautiful and charming. Winston was the elder of his brother, John, by six years. Winston adored his mother, but as a busy wife and hostess, she had little time for him. He regarded his father with fear and awe. Winston was high-spirited and had a stubborn streak, which annoyed everyone. His childhood was unhappy, he was chubby and did poorly in school; he talked with a lisp and stuttered. His father, a brilliant scholar, found him to be a disappointment, and also had little time for him. • At age 12, Winston entered Harrow school, a private secondary boarding school. He was the lowest boy in the lowest class. However, Winston began to blossom at Harrow. He discovered a love of literature and writing, which he would enjoy all the days of his life. Winston’s father, observing him at play with his toy soldier army, impatiently judged his son to be of limited intelligence. Thus, he decided his boy was suited only for a military career. Winston, after failing the entrance exam twice, entered the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst. He soon led his class in tactics and fortifications. Winston graduated eighth in his class, and consequently was appointed a second lieutenant in the Fourth Queen's Own Hussars cavalry regiment just a month after his father's death.
VL # X: What does Churchill’s experience tell us about learning/education?Churchill declared, "We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans. We shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air. We shall defend our island, whatever the cost shall be." Why the use of the repetition?
How to design multiple choice questions Pre-writing considerations: • Determine the objective/goal of what it is you want to measure/know • What level of knowledge is the question? • Why is the question important • Frame the answer around a question – asking the right question is the key • Create a “close” answer and two “wrong” answers Formatting: • 1. begin with the answer in mind • 2. select the format for determining the answer (T/F, word bank, matching, mult. Choice, etc) • 3. decide on alternate answers – look for relations or connections to the answer in order to yield an accurate measure of discernment in the answer • 4. write a draft of the question • 5. craft the language in precision and conciseness (what are other ways to ask it? ask it in fewest words possible! *** Record an answer key with explanation *** Review the handout from the other day. Observe the AP practice tests for examples of style for questions – not necessarily explanations for answers

º Visual Advertisement. Think of a compelling way to advertise your novel—picture this ad appearing on billboards, in magazines, on sides of buses. Appeal to the audience that would want to read this book with your graphics, images, and words. Will you have a slogan? Stay true to the overall themes and moods of the novel. For example, it would not be fitting to create an advertisement of George Orwell’s 1984 with hearts and flowers and rainbows and bunny rabbits. That doesn’t match his dark, futuristic dystopia. Your final advertisement should fit a standard sheet of paper (8 ½ x 11), and it should look polished and professional. Freehand drawing should be of the highest quality.
