Literature 7 - Tuesday, 11/2 - Novel vocab test on climax - symbol.
Climax: That point in the story where you know that the dilemma
has been resolved.
Denouement: What happens as a result of the dilemma being resolved.
Antagonists: Forces creating the dilemma. Must have both positive and
negative forces or there is no dilemma. They can be a person, thing, situation,
or belief.
Theme: A universal truth about people – the things they do, the
way they are, that can be applied to your life. Not a dippy moral.
Parable: Short tale that illustrates a universal truth, a belief
that appeals to all people.
Foreshadowing: A device where the author gives clues that hint at later
events in the story. Makes surprise endings more believable.
Symbol: Something that has meaning in itself and also stands for
or represents something else. (American flag – patriotism, Dove – peace,
Crucifix – our faith)
Literature 6 - Due Tuesday, 10/12- Create a visual essay. You need a picture of nature saved on your computer. It can be one you found online or one you took yourself. You are going to attach your picture to the page and give it a title. Then you are going to write a paragraph based on inspiration from your picture. Please write your name on the back. I have attached an example in Google Classroom titled "Angel Wings," or you can look at the ones on page 600 - 601 in your textbook. You must print it out and bring it to school on Tuesday to turn in. You can not submit it online.
