Thursday, Nov. 5 Agenda

*Bell Ringer: Grab lit book to discuss “Yellow Wallpaper” (if you didn’t read pg 814, do it)
*In WN, finish this statement and then support yourself in a paragraph: Perkins-Gillman proves that society’s impact on the individual is    because   . Be as thorough as you can be, textual evidence is always a plus. (**words on the board…)
*Large Group on “Yellow Wallpaper”
*Do you believe that Perkins-Gillman achieved her purpose through this story? (What do you believe her purpose was, why yes or no?)
*Literary Concepts: foreshadowing, satire
*Satire: a technique where foolish customs/traditions/ideas are ridiculed for the purpose of improving society, it is often accomplished through humor or wit, but isn’t always (it can be abrasive or bitterly critical)
*“The Lottery”
*Read through, annotating ideas of society and individual, satire, as well as other basic annotations (highlight/underline AND write what you are thinking with it)
*3. Looking back into the story, how do you feel that Tessie Hutchinson was singled out by the author?

*When done, grab the questions and when someone else is also done, work with them as your partner.
