  1. Parts of Speech Handbook & Semester Project

  2. Table of Words • Each of you, in your READING RESOURCES section will make this chart and when checking binders, I will look for a long version of this:

  3. Which Words? • Verbs must be RHETORICALLY ACCURATE VERBS • You must include 10 TONE WORDS • Nouns, adjectives and adverbs must come from any text we use in class (short stories, AoWs, etc).

  4. By the end of the semester… • You will turn in a table that includes at least 65 words • Of those words THREE will be decorated and turned in no later than • Decorated words MUST be tone words, rhetorically accurate verbs or adjectives only. NO NOUNS • If your decorated word goes on the WORD WALL then you will get 5 extra credit points

  5. SOAPSTone Using the context to convey meaning

  7. Speaker • While reading: • What voice is telling the story, reporting, and making an account of the event? • What influence or POV does this speaker present us with? • Does this speaker hold a BIAS? • Any information that may have an influence on the writing

  8. Occasion • While reading: • What is the time and place of the piece? • What encouraged/prompted this writing? • What situation was the author presented with? • The context that prompted the writing of the text

  9. Audience • While reading: • To whom was the text directed? • Think political parties, social classes, certain group of people… • Consider the language the speaker uses and reference to God, a particular nation, heaven/hell, etc. • What clues are given to make me think this was or was not written to a particular audience?

  10. Purpose • While reading: • Why was this text written? • What does the author want readers to learn from it? • What is his/her message? • HOW does he/she convey the message? • How is the text supposed to make readers feel?

  11. Subject/Syntax/Style • While reading: • The general idea/content or topic that’s being written about. • How has this subject been presented to readers? (allegory, symbolism…)

  12. Tone • While reading: • What is the speaker’s attitude? • Look at the use of diction, syntax, and imagery to infer the author’s attitude • Serious? Humorous? Satirical? Ironic?
