Day 94-Arguments & a Dystopia Future

AICE GP-Today the students viewed the CNN Student news, please be sure to keep up with current WORLD events! Also Vocab 8 HW was submitted along with the completion of the argument essay (see post from yesterday).

**Lit Cards! Many are struggling with the following cards (note, ALL of these are in A Tale of Two Cities!!-Hint, hint):

  • Analogy-deeper form of metaphor, comparing something that is common to describe something else….our “Honest Tradesman” might try to cover up his “hobby” by describing it with an analogy
  • Allegory-hardest card to find, much like how it is to describe ABSTRACT things like love, hate, Death, Fate….(get the hint???)
  • Motif-it something that repeats over, and over, and over, and over again…you have to see it from the beginning to the END (HINT!!DON’T Do this card yet!!)
  • Sarcasm-If you are despearate to go back to Of Mice & Men, go there for this device, even though it is in ATTC Too! 🙂

**Google Calendar for HW & Updates! Don’t Forget Achieve 1 due next week!**
