Quick Edgar Allan Poe Biography! • Born In Boston, and lived with his grandparents. • Mother died when he was 2 years old. • Never met his father. • Attended the University of Virginia. • Had alcohol problems. • Joined the army, he had no money or job skills at the time, and attended West Point Academy. • Only got paid 9$ for “The Raven”. • Struggled to find jobs, finally became editor of “The Southern Literary Messenger”. • Died at the age of 40. • Wrote more than just horror/scary stories…he wrote detective and science fiction literature.

  6. “The Tell-Tale Heart” Students listen to the statement and must decide if they agree, disagree, strongly agree, or strongly disagree. At each corner, students will pair with another student to discuss his/her position. It is important for you to interact with each other on the topic before it becomes a class discussion. After the pair discussion, each corner group will discuss their position. You must be active listeners and speakers because all of you will be sharing the information with the rest of the class. Next, have a group discussion to share their views on the statement. After the discussion, students may change their position in the room. If a student chooses to change positions he must defend his choice.

  24. “The Raven” • Handout - so you can Annotate • Poem written by Edgar Allan Poe

  25. “The Raven” • “The Raven” is difficult to comprehend so we will be spending a good amount of time reading and annotating the text. • Poetry is meant to be read OUT LOUD!

  26. “The Raven” – Round 1 • Ask questions —Are you confused about something? Write the question down. • React to what you read —maybe you just read something that made you mad, startled you, or brought you to tears. • Give an opinion —Do you like or dislike an idea? Do you think the author is too boring? • Locate important passages —Is there a quote that you think is important or thoughtful? Is there an idea you think might be worth remembering? Is there a ‘big idea’ that is at the foundation of the article? • Make connections —Maybe something you read reminds you of an experience you’ve had or parallels a part of your life • Define new words —Too often, reading comprehension problems occur because readers don’t understand words. • Track themes —If you notice a reoccurring theme as you read, start noting the theme when it takes place.

  27. “The Raven” – Round 2 • We are going to read the poem out loud • There will be a stanza assigned to each student • Take a few minutes to read over and practice your stanza so you are familiar with it when we read • If you are not assigned a stanza, you will be a member of the chorus. • Read the last line of each stanza in unison

  28. “The Raven” – Round 3 • Now that we have read as a class, we will listen to a recording of the same poem. • This will increase comprehension and get you to recognize the timing, rhythm, and pacing of the text. • James Earle Jones (Darth Vadar) • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXU3RfB7308 • The Simpsons • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlgQQgDhH7U • Christopher Walken • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLSmhpwLdEQ
