ENGLISH III Unit 5 Day 6- Vocab 11 Quiz, how to do outside reading, metonymy/synechdoche
Leader: Good afternoon, Pumas. Please compose yourselves for prayer by taking a comfortable position in your chairs. Leader: Ad Majorem . . . All: Dei Gloriam. Leader: We study, work and play . . . All: for the greater glory of God. 2-minute reflection Leader: We close by saying, “Glory to the Father, and to Jesus the Son, and to the Holy Spirit . . . All: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen! ”
Do-now: Have HW out (poems with lit. devices– “Men” and “For Annie”) Determine whether each sentence uses the correct pronoun. FIX it if it’s wrong. **QUIZ MONDAY ON THIS. • Several of the young women went and hung their coats up. • CORRECT: “Several” is plural and “their” is too. • 2. Each of them wanted to have their own bag; they didn’t want to share. • INCORRECT: “Each” is singular, so it should be “HIS OR HER” not “their”
Announcements/Reminders: • Quiz next Wednesday on literary devices. • Outside reading is due Monday, April 14th. • TURN IN GATSBY BOOKS AT THE TABLE ON YOUR WAY OUT! • SIGN-IN YOUR BOOK BY TELLING WHAT BOOK NUMBER YOU’RE TURNING IN (Even if it’s not your own book)
Tip of the day: CORRECT OR INCORRECT? I wanted to be the volunteer more then she did, but she got called up to the stage to be “cut in half” instead of me. INCORRECT: *than, not then (than = comparative word, then shows time) CORRECT OR INCORRECT? I cannot believe how much she was affected by the play; she was moved to tears! CORRECT: *affect = verb, something that happens, effect = end result (usually)
Prayer: • Period 6: Rita • Mon: Genesis, Wed: Adriana, Thurs: Cynthia G. • Period 7: Bryan • Mon: Josue, Wed: Alexis, Thurs: Gysselle • Period 8: Sammie • Mon: Daniel, Wed: Sara, Thurs: Audreanna
SWBAT: • Use knowledge of etymology of words to predict a word’s meaning • Identify metonymy and synecdoche
Three quick poems: • “Living in the Body” by Joyce Sutphen • “After Work” by Richard Jones • “From the Manifesto of the Selfish” by Stephen Dunn
Two new literary devices: • Synecdoche: Substituting a part of something and using it to represent the whole thing. • All hands on deck! • (We don’t literally mean we want a bunch of ONLY hands on deck– we mean the people). • Metonymy: Using a word or phrase to stand in for another word– usually a closely associated word. • The crown addressed the people. • (“crown” is closely associated with royalty… not an actual part of them, but associated). • SO, IN SHORT: Synecdoche: Part for the whole; Metonymy: Close Association.
Synecdoche? Or metonymy? • Lend me an ear, will you? • Synecdoche • Check out those sick wheels; I can’t wait to get a car like that! • Synecdoche • He has some pumped up kicks. • metonymy • I had 50 head of cattle. • synecdoche • The pen is mightier than the sword! • metonymy
Outside Reading Reflections: • Outside reading reflections will consist of three main pieces: • New front cover to the book (can’t be the original– draw, type, put images from internet together… but it must be new) • One paragraph summary • Two paragraph book review
A few things to note: One paragraph summary: • Include author/title of the book • Hit the main events– no details necessary Two paragraph book review: • Think: Would you recommend it? • What are TWO things you can focus on in your recommendation of the book? (What was shocking? Are the characters relatable? What pieces of the book were appealing?) • This is YOUR OPINION!
Vocab Quiz 11 • Read directions carefully. • When finished… • 1) Turn in to the bin up front • 2) Work on outside reading or on the reflection for outside reading.
HW: • Work on outside reading and the reflection that accompanies it. • Get some rest and relaxation!
Exit: • Write what three of the following four literary devices mean: • Metonymy, simile, alliteration, personification • THEN, give me an example of one.
