To start off the day, I showed two examples of verbal irony ("Mean Girls") and dramatic irony ("Modern Family"). Students then took notes on elements of Gothic Horror. Before we started the analysis of "The Black Cat", I showed a quick Prezi outlining the life of Edgar Allen Poe and we watched the Simpson's adaptation of his poem "The Raven". We spent the rest of class going over the literary analysis for the story "The Black Cat". Students were given questions, which are to be completed as homework.
Reminders:
- "Identities" questions: due Today
- "The Black Cat" questions: due Monday, Feb. 16, 2015
