Friday, August 25th

Remember the definitions of our first literary terms- Infer, Figurative Language, Metaphor, Simile, Personification, Onomatopoeia 

For today, you were asked to come to class with examples of figurative language found within Unbroken. They should be located in your notes.

1. We are going to gather in groups of three and work to populate a large list of figurative language.
2. As you are discussing the defining principals of each quote, I would like for your small group to discuss the larger figurative meaning of the examples of figurative language and ponder what it contributes to the larger meaning of the text.
3. The major points of your discussion will needed to be added to your notes. They will be helpful down the road.
4. Remember the small group expectations that Mrs. Cole has outlined at the beginning of class.

Homework for Monday:
After having quite the discussion with your peers, and hopefully multiple additions to your list of figurative language in your notes I would like you to write down 5 revelations about Unbroken from your discussion of figurative language. What have you learned more about the book? The characters? The text's goals? The text's accomplishments? Your understanding?

Please submit this list to GOOGLE CLASSROOM by Monday, August 28th.  Use MLA Heading on your document.
