Wednesday, Nov. 8 Agenda

*Bell Ringer: WN: Pick one of the words on the board that you believe fits with “The Lottery” and explain how you believe this story shows society’s impact on the individual being the word you chose (again, textual evidence is always a plus). Bring up to me and grab “Biography of the Story” and answer the questions below.
*Questions on the “Biography of the Story”
*Would you have imagined that much of an emotional response from people based on the story? Why yes or no?
*Three specific sections:
*1st bracket, back side: start at “Even my mother…” to end of para: How is this belief an echo of the time her parents and others lived through or their generation?
*Second bracket: start at “…most vehement” to bottom of pg: Why does she think/write this?
*Third bracket: start at “The New Yorker never…” to “…ever published”: Why do you think this received more than others?
*What is your reaction to the end of her ‘biography’ (start at “The general tone…”/ last bracket)?
*Small Group Discussion of “The Lottery”
*Post information on Schoology based on what group thinks (while discussing): each board matches with a point on the half sheet/what you are talking about
Each person posts, but not all at the same time; do one point at a time, then move on to the next point and person

FIRST BLOG POST DUE BY THE START OF CLASS TOMORROW!
