Lesson Topic
Of Mice and Men/Steinbeck
Lesson Outline
Using the Chapters 2 and 3 study guide , we supplemented Bobby's notes to examine additional instances of foreshadowing. Bobby reviewed specific text portions and then suggested what might be foreshadowed by the language. We further discussed the symbolism surrounding the mercy killing of Candy's dog as Steinbeck's criticism of society's treatment of the weak and the poor. We read aloud the pages where the act of the mercy killing is intentionally paused or delayed by the quotidian thereby adding dramatic tension to this part of the plot line. Bobby addressed this technique in his study guide answers. We then completed the vocabulary work for chapters 1 -3 by placing definitions in the notebook.For homework, read to end of ch 3, answer remaining 3 study guide questions.
