Presentation transcript:

Warm-up: Read the first description of the Radley house that is given in the last full paragraph on page 8. Analyze TONE by closely looking at 2 of the following: diction, detail, or imagery. (rabbit tobacco & johnson grass) Your 2 analyses should look like this: “At one point, Scout says that the Radley house “____________” (give diction/detail/imagery). This makes the readers understand that she feels __________________ (tone) because ____________________________________________________.”

 Let’s give a HUGE sigh of relief: the CaHSEE is over!!!  Homework tonight: Read to the end of Chapter 3.  If you will not be here tomorrow, tomorrow’s work= read to the end of Chapter 5 by Friday.  There may/may not be a reading quiz on Friday!  Bring To Kill a Mockingbird everyday.  Last reminder!

Literary Criticism 3.11 Evaluate the aesthetic qualities of style, including the impact of diction and figurative language on tone, mood, and theme, using the terminology of literary criticism. (Aesthetic approach) Literary Criticism 3.12 Analyze the way in which a work of literature is related to the themes and issues of its historical period. (Historical approach)

 Fill in your To Kill a Mockingbird notes with the information on the following slides…

 Setting= the time and place in which a story takes place, AS WELL AS the social standards that exist in that time and place  Social standards= the expectations that people in a society have for behavior, beliefs, expected ways of living, etc.

 When trying to find social standards, or social norms in a work of literature, we have to ask three questions: 1. What are people in this society expected to do, think, live like? 2. What textual evidence do we have of these views? 3. WHY might these social standards be important for us to be aware of?

 So far, we’ve read texts (Black Boy and Antigone) in which the society standards give very specific ways of viewing certain groups of people.  What seems to be the social standard in reference to how the town views the following groups of people:  Blacks?  Women?  What textual evidence do we have of these views?  Why might these social standards be important for us to be aware of early on in the book?

 Since the book is told from first person point of view, we also get a different, unique perspective on the social standards from 6-year-old Scout.  Scout seems to develop her own tone towards “the status quo” of the educational institution.  Institution= a group of people who come together to achieve a common purpose (i.e. public education institution, religious institutions, legal institution, etc.)

 What tone does Scout seem to reveal towards the educational institution?  What textual evidence do we have to support this tone?  What do you think: Is she justified?

 Let’s continue reading Chapter 3 of To Kill a Mockingbird.

Read until the end of Chapter 3
