Turn to page 5 in your student materials--- Activity 2 (Omit activity 1- vocabulary) Activity 2- Connotative Diction-- Determine the meaning of words of phrases with figurative or connotative meanings used in the text.

Example objective summary:

Activity 4- Allusions Add the definition of an allusion on the front cover of your student material (you should be putting it under diction, denotation, connotation, allegory, and motif).

Activity 5- What types of pronouns do you see Activity 5- What types of pronouns do you see? What is the point of view that the author employs? Student Material Page 7

Activity Five— Point of View: What types of pronouns do you see Activity Five— Point of View: What types of pronouns do you see? What is the point of view that the author employs? Using the tone resource, determine what the speaker’s attitude toward the subject seems to be. (Answer)The poem is written in second person-- using the pronouns you and your. The narrator employs a reflective (thoughtful) and instructive (providing information) tone.

Activity Six— Symbolism: What does the city of Ithaka seem to symbolize in this poem? What is symbolism? Symbolism-- a story element used by authors to give the reader a deeper understanding of the text by using an object to represent an idea or to give meaning that is DIFFERENT from the literal definition of the object. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5WAY4aWa4U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkI6cn8wwgM ----- Now that you know what symbolism is, what does the city of Ithaka seem to symbolize in this poem?

Activity Six— Symbolism: What does the city of Ithaka seem to symbolize in this poem? Ithaca, the home town of Odysseus, is a symbol for a highly desired object that drives behavior and action. Even though Odysseus is trying to get home throughout the epic, this poem suggests that a person learns more from the journey than in reaching the destination.
