Find your new seats, please! English 10 Honors Day 34 Objective To demonstrate understanding of tragic hero through creation of (fictional) tragedy
Practice ECA • Grade the practice ECA test you took last class. • Multiple choice questions are worth 1 point; short answers are worth 2 points. • This should give you an idea of your ECA score. • ECA testing dates are April 28, 29, & 30 • One day is a multiple choice and short answer test, and one day is a timed writing.
Tragic Hero • Review your notes about Hamlet from the last class, as well as consider your understanding of Brutus and Caesar in Julius Caesar. • What makes a tragic hero? • Why is it possible, and effective, to have a tragic hero who is flawed as a story’s protagonist?
Create Your Own Tragic Hero • Create your own tragic hero by filling out the basic elements of him/her on the sheet provided. • You can make a modern tragic hero or a tragic hero from a society in the past. • Then, create an image to represent your tragic hero. (This can be a portrait or something symbolic.)
Create Your Own (Fictional) Tragedy • On your own paper, write a short narrative that tells your hero’s story. • Be sure all of the elements on your worksheet are represented through the character’s actions. • Don’t just state “Charlie had great qualities like his love for puppies; however, his greatest flaw was his weakness for chocolate.” Show me those traits through Charlie’s actions.
