In today's class, you'll engage in a creative activity to explore euphemisms by creating one for a personal experience in your life. Consider why you prefer this discreet term. We will also connect this to the play we're studying, focusing on Algernon's concept of "Bunburying." Following this, you'll collaborate to write skits depicting various types of irony. This interactive session promotes understanding of literary devices while allowing for personal expression and teamwork. Get ready for a fun and insightful day!

3/26/14 • Bellwork: On page 96 of your INB, complete the following activity while I check journals: • (leave room for classwork, too) • Create a euphemism for something in your life that you would rather refer to in a more discreet manner. Give an explanation and why you would use it. • How does this relate to the play?: • Algernon creates the euphemism for leading a double-life that he calls “Bunburying”. He says to his friend Jack/Ernest, “what you really are is a Bunburyist” because he invented a story about a sick friend, Mr. Bunbury, so he could hide whenever he wanted. • Agenda: • Bellwork • Journal checks during bellwork • Irony (classwork) • Put the handout on page 97 • DIRECTIONS: Under bellwork, I would like you to write a skit for each type of irony. You should include all people in your group. • Have fun with this! • Your next journal entries will go on page 111. I have things planned between these pages and those!
