Watched an Encore introduction to Poe and
a “The Tell-Tale Heart” animation and film

o
The killer in the story didn’t actually hate the
man’s eye…but rather, the eye stood for something the man hates.
o
On a separate piece of paper:
o
What the eye might represent to the killer?
What does the character do because of the eye?
o
What is the “eye” in your life…that when you see
it, you have strong, negative feelings?
§

§
Then 5 that you dislike in yourself
