Eng 11 E: Prep for Friday's class

Read the story, "A Few Notes for Orpheus". Each group of three will do a close reading of their assigned pages. During Friday's class, you will prepare a short presentation for the class where you will highlight and discuss three of the key elements that you agree are important in the passage.

Look for
symbols, tone, rhythms, syntax, literary devices, sound devices, changes in language from slang to colloquial to formal, changes in character, etc

Always keep the story's theme in mind. Think TICK chart. How does the story as a whole fit with your passage?

Amanda, Rachael, Jessie, Rachel S-27, 28 plus the title (look up the myth and find the pun)
Jessica, Keira, Connor, 29, 30
