ENGLISH 2 CP

AGREE OR DISAGREE? I would allow a bible salesman to come

into my house. I would lie about my age so that a

younger person would like me. I would go off into the woods with a

complete stranger without telling anyone where I was going.

I would be upset if I had a prosthetic leg. Science is the answer. What goes around comes around.

TONE: WHAT’S THAT AGAIN? Relates to the overall feeling a story

creates in the reader. Tone really helps when we talk about foreshadowing. Does anyone remember what foreshadowing is?

What are some examples of tone? Describe a book or a TV show that you think tone played a role in.

POINT OF VIEW The perspective from which the story is

told. First person (I grew up…)Second person (You grew up….)Third Person (Maggie grew up….)We like point of view because it gives us

insight to certain characters, but sometimes it contains bias. Tell me a time when you’ve encountered an example of point of view and how it affected the story or not.

LET’S DISCUSS! Tone and Point of view in “Good Country

People”—how do these elements play into this story?

WRITING ASSIGNMENT• Analyze the way in which the tone and

setting influence the plot. Furthermore, what do you think of the ending of the story? Did Hulga have it coming? How do you think this type of situation would have been handled today? What do you think of both the representation of the male and female? Please respond accordingly to these questions and make your answers thoughtful and complete. Feel free to include any articles, pictures, or other types of media to help convey your point. You are limited, however, in what is blocked by the school.
