Literary Terms, part 2

Today, we had a quiz on "A-ha" moments. This was based off of the lesson we had last time on "Crash" by Jerry Spinelli. Students watched a video and identified the "A-ha" clue words, what the speaker realized, and how it changed the speaker.

Then we defined the following literary terms:

• Foreshadowing
• Metaphor
• Simile
• Characters
• Suspense
• Chronological order
• Plot

We used this prezi to demonstrate the concepts.

Poem of the week: 

"Harlem" by Langston Hughes is due tomorrow.
