thursday, December 3 - Walrus and Carpenter

Objective: By the end of class, students will analyze allegorical poem and identify poetic devices in order to connect figurative language with author's point or message (to improve reading comprehension and CRQ response ability for Keystones).

DO NOW
Take out your Walrus and Carpenter poems. Be sure they are completely annotated for poetic devices throughout. Then NUMBER the stanzas 1-18.

Direct Instruction

Four multiple choice questions on handout. The questions refer to specific stanzas so be careful and go back to the poem to check every answer! 

Below are yesterday's CRQ's again: Go back, finish or fix. 

Choose one of the two CRQ's:

Analyze the poem "The Walrus and the Carpenter" and explain how it is a satire for organized religion. Be sure to cite examples from the text to support your answer.  
(for this one you must know the allegorical meaning that we discussed in class - it is not IN the poem itself).
OR
Explain how the use of figurative language is significant in Lewis Carroll's, "The Walrus and the Carpenter." 
(helps create images to make a point - be specific when you give example of figurative language that he uses)

Closure
Review answers and Introduce TONE.

Exit PAss
