WEEK 5

Welcome to week 5. 

Here's your work...

1. Frontier Vocab...Something different!  Compose a piece of original writing on any topic just long enough to include TEN of your previous frontier words. Highlight each word. Yes, this will probably be a terrible piece of writing, especially if you are able to cram ten words into one paragraph (which you're welcome to try). The writing needs to make sense though. We're not literary savages, after all. 

2. ATTC “Book the First” questions:
I. Discuss the personification of each: a.The woodman, Fate   b.The farmer, Death   c.Saint Antoine   d.Hunger
II. Discuss (a brief paragraph for each) the following symbols:  a.The mill   b.The cask of wine
III. Who is Jacques?
IV. Describe the wine shop keeper and his wife.
V. Develop this topic sentence into a full paragraph: “Chapter 6 of Book the First is good evidence that the Romantic influence was still strong in Dickens’ time.”  Include a direct quote in your paragraph.

3. Read "Book the Second" and continue the chapter summaries. Keep adding them to what you've done so far.

4. LBGB...
  • Read the "Style and Usage" section of chapter 3. 
  • Look at these usage pairs and write a correct sentence using each (You may use my examples as models, but write your own):
            a. affect / effect
            b. assure / ensure / insure
            c. compose / comprise
            d. farther / further
            e. i.e. / e.g.
            f. me / myself

5. Revise the Frankenstein essay if necessary (If I didn't change it in the spreadsheet to Frank essay FD, then you need to revise it again).





HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
