Symbolism spotting — Homework
Find a possible symbol in your current book (something mentioned more than once at important moments) and analyze it.
- 1.What object, color, or image did you choose?
- 2.List two moments where it appears. What is happening in the story each time?
- 3.What do you think this symbol represents? Explain using evidence from both moments.
- 4.Could this object just be a regular detail instead of a symbol? What makes you confident it is (or is not) symbolic?
- 5.True or false: an object only needs to be mentioned once for it to count as a symbol.
