  1. Am Lit DO NOW 8-18-14 • What do you think it says about Native American culture if they valued oral tradition? (Deep thought: so think about how history and literature are passed on in this tradition.

  7. Am Lit DO NOW 8-20 • Reflect on your quiz score: where did you mess up during that unit? Where could I have helped you more? What was the hardest part about NA literature? • What are some facts you know about the American Slave Trade, slavery in America, or slavery in general? • Have your notes from page 83.

  8. Success Today Means 8-20 • Students actively read in large group and/or in small groups attempting to understand Equiano’s story first and then to find evidence to help suggest why he wrote it (his purpose in writing his story)

  9. American Narrative Tradition • One of four traditional types of early American narratives • Slave Narratives – an autobiographical account of the life of an enslaved person • These narratives supported the abolitionist cause by revealing the horrors of slavery.

  11. Success Today Means • Students read well enough to answer comprehension questions. • Students work collaboratively enough to suggest Equiano’s PURPOSE in writing this story. (We have to put ourselves in his time, and then find EVIDENCE in the story to support our claim.)
