Summer+Reading

Let's #|get started!

Your task involves several parts. Read the page entirely and email jennifer.jones@gccisd.net what you think you will have to do in this unit. In the subject line, write "What I need to do". Divide your email into three sections labeled - "On my own," "As a group," and "Questions". Ask any questions of me that you have, but do not ask questions that are obviously the result of failure to read the task closely. If you think you do not have an email, please see me ASAP so we can fix this situation. This email is due by Tuesday, September 4th @ 7:30 a.m. No late homework accepted.

 * 1) <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 160%;">Don’t use absolutes (never, always) because many things in life are not absolute.
 * 2) <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 160%;">Don’t use first (I, we) or second person (you); only use third person if it is a reference to people in general. People, children, and teenagers are examples of what you should use.
 * 3) <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 160%;">Don’t preach. Theme is an observation about life, not a judgment.

For instance, there is not an incident in it that is factual.

From childhood on, I did sit in the courtroom watching my father argue cases and talk to juries.” Harper Lee about To Kill a Mockingbird in an interview with John K.

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 160%;">**Allusions** are references made to something or someone in another time or place or in another piece of writing. An author frequently uses allusions to relate something else to what is presently happening in a story. It is a form of imagery like similes, metaphors, and personification. **[STOP WRITING]**

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 160%;">Common things to which a writer might allude are Biblical stories, stories from mythology, legends, and history. Sometimes titles of books are themselves allusions, such as John Steinbeck’s East of Eden (from the Bible) and Ernest Hemingway’s For Whom the Bell Tolls (from a poem by John Donne).

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 160%;">When Calpurnia tells Jem and Scout she is going to take them to church with her, Scout recalls a not-very-nice trick her Sunday school class once played on Eunice Ann Simpson. They tied her to a chair in the furnace room and then went off and forgot her until Eunice managed to make a ruckus, disrupting the service upstairs and saying she didn’t want to “play Shadrach any more.” This expression, “play Shadrach,” is an allusion to a story in the Bible’s Old Testament in which three Hebrew children named Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego are thrown into a fiery furnace by the king and are later found unharmed.
