First, write about the conflict your group chose last time. What, if anything, has developed in what you have read since? Then, choose one of the following and write a response.
Synthesize Evidence: Use details and evidence to reach conclusions about the personality traits of a character or to make inferences about the plot.
Identify with a Character: This doesn’t mean you agree with or even like a character, but that you attempt to understand their motives and feelings.
Make Connections: Does the reading connect with your prior knowledge in any way? Record how it connects to what you know about history, science, other literature, or the real world. Does it connect with you personally?
Identify Writer’s Style: Find instances of figurative language and other literary devices that you think are evidence of the author’s unique style. What effect do these devices have on the overall story?
Identify Symbols and/or Motifs: Decide on symbols or recurring motifs that the author uses and explain their significance to the overall story.
