Today, we continued to actively finish reading the excerpt from Beowulf. While I read it out loud, students highlighted key information. We also identified allusions (monotheism), personification, foreshadowing, tone (positive and negative), metaphors and alliterations. If you were not here, it would be wise to come in and meet with me to stay caught up.
At the end of class, you were given a few minutes to jot down a summary of the excerpt. You could do this in point form if you chose. The purpose is to give you something to start with when you get the questions tomorrow.
