 The following are the steps to complete successful literary devices.  You will follow this process every time you complete a lit device entry.  This is the ONLY time we will do this in class!

 Topic: Literary Device Glossary  Essential Question: What process do I use to complete successful entries?

 Step 1: Identify ONE literary device from your reading.  You may want to find many as you read, but each entry should only contain ONE lit device.  Find the page and the context in which it is used (Hint: you may need to reread the section!)  Define the term.  Quote the example. (Cite!)

 Step 2: Explain the context in which it is used  Summarize BRIEFLY the section in which it is used; in other words, give your reader some background.  DO NOT explain the whole story, characters, plot details, etc. Assume your reader knows the general gist of the story (because I usually do).

 Step 3: Explain the use of the device in this section.  How is the device being used in this context?  Prove that it truly is an example of this device. (Use an active voice – “This symbolizes….”).

 Step 4 : Explain the purpose and significance of this device in relation to the text as a whole.  Use quotes to support your claim.  Use themes and author’s messages to show what the term is doing in the text. How does this device help you as a reader understand the overall message(s) better?

 Step 1: Identify ONE literary device from your reading. Allusion: A reference to a mythological, literary, or historical person, place, or thing. Example: “White people don’t feel good about Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Burn it” (54).

 Step 2: Explain the context in which it is used Turn to a partner and explain your allusion and what is happening in that section of the text. Write down your discussion using your best academic writing. Copy the following: Function: In Ray Bradbury’s science-fiction text Fahrenheit 451, ____________________________

 Step 3: Explain the use of the device in this section. With your partner, discuss how you KNOW that this is an example of allusion. What is being referenced? Prove it. Write down your discussion using your best academic writing.

 Step 4 : Explain the purpose and significance of this device in relation to the text as a whole. With your partner, explain the importance of this allusion. What is BRADBURY trying to get across to the reader? What message is being sent through the use of this allusion? Why use an allusion instead of just deliberately telling us? Write down your discussion using your best academic writing.
