Seniors - Complete the questions below. Due at the beginning of class:

Symbol Project Quiz:

  1. What’s the difference between a trait/characteristic and a connotation?
  2. What is the difference between a conventional symbol and a literary symbol?
  3. What will you look for in literature and film related to your project?
  4. Can you think of any horror films where your symbol appears?


AP Language - Complete analytical paragraph on back of bingo board

*Note - I will not accept paragraphs with incorrectly embedded quotations or language like "this quote shows." Analysis should include meaningful discussion of the evidence. Choose ONE STRATEGY to analyze, include at least TWO bite-sized quotations, and use the chart below to push your analysis beyond the general meaning of the article and into the specific meaning of the evidence, including what it says, how it says, and what it means. When thinking of strategies, you may want to focus on the rhetorical methods or development OR the TYPES of ethos/logos/pathos appeals that we consulted today on the handout.
