In class we will do some more vocabulary work, including puzzles etc.

ABOUT

In "The Scarlet Ibis," foreshadowing, symbolism, and image are demonstrated to their full potential. The frequent foreshadowing hints darkly at Doodle's death, and the unmistakable symbol of the scarlet ibis for Doodle heightens the effect of the image created when the brother huddles over his "fallen scarlet ibis." Foreshadowing, symbolism, and image really contribute to this story's unique style.

See you then!
