Tuesday: Quiz and Project Assignment

We started class today with a quiz over section 21-end of the text.  I hope you did well.

Then we brainstormed key ideas that are related to the text. Topics were assigned and each had time to work on the topic to prepare a poster.  Your final project should include:

• What is the key idea you are focused on?
• How does the idea relate to the text?
  • is it plot, character, symbol???  Is there another way to consider it?
  • What are examples and non-examples of the idea? (for bravery– who is brave and who lacks bravery… what effect does each have on the story?)
• What is the key lesson or message about the key idea you are examining?
  • Why is it important?
• Make sure you reference the text (section and lines with some specific details/summary) to give evidence for your claims
