Friday 5-6-16

Today we discussed Chapter 1 of Frankenstein...

We discussed:
  • Reading it ... imagining the story taking place on screen...exploring word choices and descriptive writing
  • Victor's impression of his parents
  • Victor's first memories
  • Victor's vow to love and care for Elizabeth from the moment she was "adopted"
  • Patience, charity, and self-control were modeled for Victor as a child. We discussed how this may or may not have been a part of his adult life - giving textual examples.  
  • Word choices author uses when describing FEMALE characters
