We practiced analyzing setting and symbolic passages that illustrate theme. We specifically focused on the symbolism of the brook which Dimmesdale notes"divides two worlds" ie the contrasting worlds of truth/realty and illusion /deception. We noted how Pearl bathed in sunlight represents a world of truth or reality while Dimmesdale ,as his name connotes, remans dim or in the darkness of deceit. We further studied parallel passages where the narrator comments on the futility of expatiation for both Hester and Dimmesdale.

Today we prepared an outline for an AP style literary essay that Joshua will be writing this week. To remain aligned with the AP style open essay, we first focused on forming an interpretation .

After we identified contrasting characters(foils) , symbols, and settings we discussed how these contrasts illuminate an interpretation : illusion vs reality as evidenced by the difference between an outward persona and inner truth.
