Yesterday was the start of a new quarter this school year. We went over a brief overview of what to expect this quarter. We will read more short stories and work on developing our writing with punctuation and vocabulary. Here are some concepts we will be exploring this quarter:
- Characterization (Protagonist, Antagonist, Round/Flat, Dynamic)
- Narrator and Voice (1st Person, 3rd Person Ltd, and Omniscient Point of View)
- Symbolism and Irony (Sarcasm, Situational and Dramatic Irony)
Our Final Exam will be based on an essay on a Coat of Arms that you will create using:
- A collection of symbols that best represent you as an individual.
- Punctuation: COMMA (,), SEMI-COLON (;), COLON (:), and DASH (--).
- New Vocabulary!
