LIT 1 Class Rules: ✓ BE ATTENTIVE ✓ ALWAYS SMILE ✓ WHEN I SAY "Are you ready?" YOU WILL SAY, "LET'S GO!!!!!" Energizer: "SING IT ALONG!" Energizer: Mechanics: You will guess a minus one song then you will sing it as a group. *ENCHANTED* "Across the room your silhouette starts to make its way to me." "The playful conversation starts, Counter all your quick remarks, Like passing notes in secrecy." FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE -SOUND -SYMBOLS AND REPRESENTING OBJECT "a word or phrase used in a different way from it's usual FIGURATIVE meaning in order to LANGUAGE create a particular mental picture or effect." - Oxford Learner's Dictionary Repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of words. Alliteration EXAMPLE : "She sells seashells by the seashore." The repetition of the consonance sounds within sentences or phrases. Consonance EXAMPLE : "Mike likes his new bike." Repetition of vowel sounds within words. Assonance EXAMPLE : "The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain." -Words that imitate natural sounds Onomatopoeia EXAMPLE : "The bees buzzed in the garden." A symbol represents something other than what it represents literally. Symbols add deeper meaning to a Symbolism story. EXAMPLE : Dove - peace Dog - loyalty Black - war Red - Love or death My Heart Leaps Up When I Behold by William Wordsworth "My heart leaps up when I behold A rainbow in the sky: So was it when my life began; So is it now I am a man; So be it when I shall grow old, Or let me die! The Child is father of the Man; And I could wish my days to be Bound each to each by natural piety." ACTIVITY TIME !!!!
