Book Talk/Collage Presentations
- EQ: Do you understand what a motif is and how an author uses it to convey meaning?
- Get together with at least three other students who all read the same book and present your collages to each other.
- what the book was about,
- the motifs you found and their meanings,
- what you did and did not like about it,
- and how strong your recommendation would be for another person to read it.
Writing Sample
- 3-4 strong paragraphs
- Begin with a brief synopsis of the story. Then discuss in one or two paragraphs how the author developed a motif and what resulted from using it. Include at least two quotes to support your findings. End with a paragraph describing how strongly you would recommend this to another reader and why.
Activity
- Two Truths and a Lie (if we have time)
Homework
