1-18/19-2008 Golden Lines


Lesson:
We went over allusions, imagery, and figurative language in class.
If absent, write a definition for similes, metaphors, symbols, personification, and allusions.
Then, find an example of each of these in the River Between.
If you were absent, also complete the Golden Lines activity on the assignments sheet.

Homework:
Read the rest of the book
Find four themes in The River Between. Write one paragraph explaining how each is a theme and Ngugi's take on this theme. If you don't know what a theme is, look it up in your Writer's Inc. book.
