Start-Up – Ironic Quiz 1/27/15 Listen to the song and look at the lyrics. As each line comes up, think about whether the situation discussed is actually ironic, coincidental, or just bad luck. Remember, IRONY exists if what happens is the opposite of what you might expect to happen.

Start-Up – Ironic Quiz Take a moment to discuss the lyrics with your group. Now mark each statement on your paper with an I (Ironic) or N (Not Ironic). Remember, IRONY exists if what happens is the opposite of what you might expect to happen.

Ironic Quiz – Class Discussion An old man turned ninety-eight He won the lottery and died the next day It’s a black fly in your Chardonnay It’s a death row pardon two minutes too late It’s like rain on your wedding day It’s a free ride when you’ve already paid It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take

Irony IRL Project Each group will be working together to create a Google Slide presentation which shows examples of all three types of irony found IN REAL LIFE (with the exception of the DRAMATIC IRONY examples, which can be from a book, movie, play, or TV show). Each member of the group will need to come up with at least 3 examples of irony, one from each type (situational, dramatic, and verbal).

Irony IRL Project Each member will create 3 slides for your presentation that: SHOW (with an image or video clip, or with a situation described in writing) their examples TELL (in no less than 2-3 complete sentences) why they are a good representation of that type of irony. The length of your groups’ presentation will vary depending on the number of people in your group (minimum of 10 slides…3 per person plus title slide).

Irony IRL Project In addition, there must be a title slide for your presentation that includes: A TITLE for your presentation The NAMES of all group members Which group members were responsible for which slides (by number). These presentations must be COMPLETED AND READY TO PRESENT TO THE CLASS ON THURSDAY!!!
