ENGLISH – 1ST TRIMESTER– Day 43

Decide how you will study and remember this week’s 11 prefixes/roots. Find this week’s 11..they begin with dict-  and end with therm-

Using your list of 20 items (that you made while reading the first half of the story)…

o   Decide which ones are symbolic (and which are NOT).

o   Next, for each item you believe is symbolic, each of you write out a NEW CHART that explains what each item symbolizes. For example:

§  (pg. 338) “When Peter was ready to go to sleep, the peacock spread his magnificent tail, enfolding the boy gently like a closing go-to-sleep flower, burying him in the gloriously iridescent, rustling vortex.”

·         On your chart, write:

o   If the peacock represents Doodle, then the peacock’s magnificent tail (from Doodle’s made-up story) symbolizes how much Doodle loves his older brother.

Next, create 4 lists – 40 reasons total:

·         List 10 events that happened in the story that would help convince a jury that…

o   1. Doodle’s older brother is responsible for the death of Doodle?

o   2. Doodle’s parents are responsible for the death of Doodle?

o   3. Doodle’s older brother is NOT responsible for the death of Doodle?

o   4. Doodle’s parents are NOT responsible for the death of Doodle?
