  1. Hook, Housekeeping & Homework MONDAY How was your weekend? Week 4: Consider what is… 1 thing that made your weekend great or that you are happy about? 1 thing you accomplished? 1 negative or a distraction that you can turn into a positive or improve this week? Homework:MSFM Excerpt 1 (with written responses) and/or review Chapter 4 of Night for additional symbols (see new chart)

  2.

  3. ‘The Kingdom of Night’: Lessons from the Past Colorado Academic Standards: 2. Reading for All Purposes & 3. Writing & Composition MYPH Criterion: A. Analyzing&B. Organizing Objectives: You will be able to perform a close reading of the memoir Night by ElieWiesel in order to examine the use of symbolism and its impact on the meaning of the work as a whole Guiding Questions: • What value is there in studying the horrors and dysfunctions of the past? • How can story-telling affect the world? • What is the purpose and effect of symbols (and motifs)? How do symbols create and deepen understanding and contribute to the meaning of the work as a whole? Enduring Understanding: • Literature is often a chronicle of man’s capacity for inhumanity and dysfunction, but it is also a reminder of the power of the human spirit to triumph over the past. In that sense, literature has been essential to the march of human progress. • Narrative/story-telling deepens our understanding of history by giving us an intimate, personal understanding of the experiences of others in times past.

  4. Instruction: Obtain Purpose: to familiarize ourselves with the text Tasks: Preview the text • Look at the front cover. What do you notice? What inferences can you make about any images provided?
