Monday, November 23 - Notes from a Bottle Assessment / keystone Review

Objective: By the end of class students will review POV and analyze short fiction in order to improve reading comprehension.

DO NOW

Write this down in notebooks: 

When deciding POV, NEVER consider any DIALOGUE. That means CROSS OUT ANYTHING THAT IS IN BETWEEN "QUOTATION MARKS." Then reread and decide from there.

Example: The girl looked cold. "I think you should come inside," her friend said.  The girl turned and replied, "I'm not cold. I love the snow."  (what POV is this?)

Notes from a Bottle CRQ (40 points):

Analyze how James Stevenson uses 1st person POV to create ambiguity which forces the reader to make inferences. Cite two pieces of textual evidence to support your answer.

After completing both multiple choice and CRQ, complete the Keystone review sheet handout from last week.
