AQotWF - Literal vs. Figurative continued; Reading chapter 7

We'll continue our look at literal and figurative language today, using examples you identify from chapter 6.

The second half of the class period is set aside as time for you to continue reading chapter 7.

Please be sure not only to finish reading the chapter but also to review the work from the past few days in preparation for Friday's in-class writing.

• Proper use of quotations
• never using "on page ..." to introduce a quotation
• using an introduction before a quotation (or incorporating it into a sentence another way)
• never letting a quotation stand as its own sentence
• citing with a page number in parentheses
• never announcing what you are doing ("I will use this quote to show...")
• Identifying literal and figurative layers of meaning
• literal meaning exists at the textual level
• figurative meaning uses metaphor, simile, symbolism, imagery, language, and more to suggest alternative layers of meaning
