3 things that I learned: Connotation is what the word suggests. Denotation is the dictionary or literal definition. An example can be the book in 1984. The connotation could be that it's just a book that Winston wrote in, but when you read the book you understand that it's more than that. That Winston wanted to write about what was happening in his time, even though he was gonna get caught he wanted others to be aware.
2 questions I have: For the prompt header, how would you be able to figure out the tone or mood of the story? I don't understand how this is going to tell me about how the story is going to feel like. Does it mean by the prompt header that you're going to know what the story is about? An example can be Crime and Punishment, where you could say the mood could be mad or depressing.
1 skill that I know well that I can teach others is Personification. Personification is when you give inanimate objects human characteristics. I learned a lot about this topic and caught on easily because I believe everything has a meaning even if they can’t talk. It’s like in English class when you’re a reading a book and the teacher asks what the blue curtains mean. If the curtains don’t talk, then how does do we know the they mean depression, as what the teacher would say. This is when we give the curtains a meaning, and a sign of emotion.
