Today we began with a short sentence structure warm-up and then talked about the end of the book. The rest of the period was spend on the activity below.
- Choose one quotation from your dialectical journal. Explain how it demonstrates or illuminates one of the themes of Speak. Themes should be on your green paper, or you may come up with a new theme now.
- Choose one of these motifs (repeated symbols)—seeds (see pages 66-7, 125-6, 133, etc.); mirrors (pages 17, 40, 50, 82, 123-24, etc.); trees (pages 12, 54, 66, 78)—or choose another that you noticed.
- Explain the importance of this symbol.
- What does it have to do with Anderson’s story and themes?
- Include and explain at least one strong quotation in your response.
