Introduction through poetry and short stories U1W4 Introduction through poetry and short stories

Do Now Sit in your assigned seat. Get out your copy of our short story, “Marriage is a Private Affair” and reread your notes and questions you wrote down at the end of the story.

Close Reading Follow the steps detailed in the following slides in order to complete your Close Reading of “Marriage is a Private Affair”

Round 1 Reread the last two paragraphs silently to yourself. You may transfer any annotations you may have from yesterday’s reading.

Round 2 Turn to your partners and discuss the questions that you have. Make sure each person gets a turn to ask their questions. Feel free to add annotations or questions to your own paper.

Round 3 Reread the last paragraphs again, one section at a time! Trade off reading each section so that everyone has a chance to read. Stop after each section and discuss… the personification of nature make a list of what nature does in order discuss: how does nature affect Okeke? I suggest you write down the most important points of your discussion.

Round 4 Reread the close read AGAIN!!!! Switching readers each turn. Stop after each section and discuss… diction circle what you believe to be the most important words look up definitions and synonyms as needed (I suggest you do this for words that you know as well because a deeper understanding of the words will help you in the long run.

Round 5 Reread the sections again one last time. Discuss: What happens after the story is over? Find specific evidence to back up your answer! Write down your response.
