AGENDA:
Close reading activity: Pages 6-9.
a. We will be reading this passage aloud as a class.
b. Then reread the passage silently to yourself and jot down any observations you have on the sheet you will be given. Look for figurative language (i.e. similes, metaphors, imagery, personification, symbolism, etc.)
c. After you have finished, we will go over your observations as a class.
With the remaining class time, keep working on finding a
folktale/fairytale for your final story. If you have already found one,
start thinking about how you would include a scene like the one from
close reading activity into your own story.
HOMEWORK:
Read Chapters 5-8 in The Snow Child

1. How does the title set the tone of the book?
ReplyDelete- It gives us an idea that it obviously has something to do with a child. Possible in a cold snowy setting.
2. In what ways can this story be considered magical?
- The fact that the snow child that Mabel and Jack created could possibly come to "life"
3. In what ways are Ivey's writing cinematic?
- she writes describing the setting a lot. there are many metaphors used as well
4. who is the main character in the novel?
- The main character is obviously Mabel. The story focuses more on her feelings throughout the beginning and it describes her past somewhat more than other characters.
5. Why is it important that Mabel is an outsider in Alaska?
- it hows us that she really is lonely and has no friends or family to keep her company or keep her happy except Jack. But jack doesn't help because they are both going through a hard time. this also gives us the impression that she may be going through a depressing time.
