Well, it looks like my AP Lit classes are starting to think like English majors and break down the multiple meanings of diction, imagery, and symbolism existing in The Awakening!
To start class, you copied down unit 2 vocabulary words and received your expert assignment, which will begin tomorrow. Metamorphosis should prove a popular vocabulary word as our protagonist Edna continues to forgo sleep and awaken to life's possibilities.
Next, we finished our partner/group discussion of chapter 11 (second hour) and chapters 8-11 (fourth hour).
And last, and most entertaining, the individual close read of a passage from the text. On the board, each of you close read a passage and provided an analysis on the spot of the characterization, motifs, and literary elements used by Chopin. We will finish our individual close reads tomorrow before diving into the next chapters.
Reading assignment for tomorrow=
Second hour = Chapters 26-30
Fourth hour = Chapters 23-28
