English II Periods 0,1,2 Ms. Nagle

Definition from Merriam Webster Dictionary ( something that stands for or suggests something else by reason of relationship, association, convention, or accidental resemblance; especially : a visible sign of something invisible an arbitrary or conventional sign used in writing or printing relating to a particular field to represent operations, quantities, elements, relations, or qualities an object or act representing something in the unconscious mind that has been repressed

sport? piece of clothing? Religion? Family? Friends?

Why did you pick the symbol you did to represent you? Would that symbol remain the same as you continue to mature into an adult? Or would it change? What if your symbol suddenly had a changed meaning tomorrow? How would you try to convince someone of its previous meaning?

Poems Novels Dramas Song Lyrics

The Great Gatsby by Scott F. Fitzgerald What does the green light at the end of Daisy’s dock symbolize? The Awakening by Kate Chopin What do the bird and the sea symbolize throughout the novel?

 Rascal Flatts’ Bless the Broken Road   I set out on a narrow way many years ago Hoping I would find true love along the broken road But I got lost a time or two Wiped my brow and kept pushing through I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you [Chorus:] Every long lost dream led me to where you are Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars Pointing me on my way into your loving arms This much I know is true What is the road symbolic for?

Tonight’s Homework has two parts: 1. You need to bring in APPORPRIATE song lyrics. We will be using them as a warm up exercise to identify a symbol and its meaning. (DUE TOMORROW) 2. You will be creating a poster of the symbol that represents you. On the back you will be answering the three questions from today. You will all present your posters and explain them in a 2 to 3 minute presentation. (DUE FRIDAY) *Remember that the powerpoint is posted on my website and you must print out the rubric and bring it to class tomorrow.*
