Reminders Happy Valentine’s Day! Vocabulary Quiz Unit 7 - Friday
HW: Read Act IV, Scene iv

Write About It: Read and Think: There was a scurrying around and then eight of them snatched up their guns, formed into twos, and marched out behind the office. He wheeled his horse about and trotted toward me. I jumped back and plunged for the tavern doorway. -- James Lincoln Collier and Christopher Collier, My Brother Sam is Dead Look at the underlined word (snatched) in the first sentence. Notice how clearly you can “see” the action because of that strong verb. How would it change the meaning of the sentence if it read…eight of them picked up their guns? What does the use of the word plunged in the third sentence tell you about the narrator’s attitude toward the other characters in this passage?

Now you try it… Use the word plunged in a sentence, but instead of having the word express fear and desperation, have it express excitement and happiness. (Remember that in many cases the context of the word determines its deeper meaning.)
