Figurative Language

4/22/11
- We began class by finding good examples of figurative language.
- "figurative language is language of comparison," - Mr. Neal
- Pg. 372, "Boyfriend...in the other."
- Words "boyfriend" and "moth" connect; they both are evolving, both have sense of entrapment, meaningful, sudden.
- We wrote in our writing journals about this quote and wrote our own analysis of it and shared with the class.
- We watched a short movie trailer for Kavalier and Clay and saw the delineation of one's perception of the novel.
- We did the same process of analysis for page 165, "There was a dank...knock them dead." This was followed by another writing entry in our writing journals.
