Antigone: Who is the Tragic Hero?

1. Antigone: Who is the Tragic Hero? Turning your Type One into a Type Four

2. The Goal • Turn your Type One paragraphs into one solid Type Four paragraph – that means a few drafts, some peer editing, and addressing three FCA’s (Focus Correction Areas)

3. Our FCA’s: • List three reasons why Antigone or Creon is the tragic hero – what do you need to know, then? • The definition of TRAGIC HERO! • This FCA is worth 15 points • Capitalize all appropriate words – what does that mean? • Beginning of sentences, proper nouns • We’ve discussed this many times in DLP’s! • This FCA is worth 10 points • Underline or italicize the title of the play – where have we learned about this? • DLP’s! • This FCA is worth 5 points

4. The Process • Review your Type One • Read any notes I’ve made (not everyone will have them) • In re-reading your Type One, think about the FCA’s listed on the previous slide. Have you addressed them all? • Review the definition of Tragic Hero (in your reading guide) • a character who makes a mistake or has a fatal flaw that, combined with fate and external forces, brings on a tragedy

5. The Process (cont’d) • Using the given Collins paper, revise your Type One into a Type Three • Put your name at the top right • List the type of writing (three) at top center • List all three FCA’s on the paper at the top left • Think about what you want to say • Make some notes that list the three reasons WHY you think Creon or Antigone is the tragic hero • You may use ONE idea from the paper in your reading guide, ONE idea from the quotes, but the FINAL idea must be your own creation

6. The Process (cont’d) • Draft your Type Three paragraph • Pay close attention to your notes • Pay close attention to the FCA’s • This revised paragraph is due TOMORROW • We will revise your revisions () tomorrow with a peer • Eventually your perfected paragraph will be uploaded to the Wiki • Questions?

7. Antigone: Who is the Tragic Hero? Day Two – Type Three to Type Four with Peer Editing Have your Type Three from yesterday out on your desk

8. Peer Editing • Quick check • Choose ONE person to trade your paragraph with (or do a three-way trade among three people) • Let’s talk briefly about whom you’ll choose… • Write YOUR name on the TOP LEFT of your peer’s Collins paper • Read through your peer’s paragraph once • Do not make any notes or corrections yet – just read for comprehension

9. Peer Editing • Read through the paragraph a second time, and this time use a marker to identify or correct the following: • FCA #1: Look for the three reasons your peer listed as to why Antigone/Creon is the tragic hero • Number the three reasons using the marker • FCA #2: Ensure all proper nouns, proper pronouns (I), and beginnings of sentences are capitalized • Use the marker to identify any times they DID NOT do this • FCA #3: Ensure the play’s name is underlined any time it is mentioned • Use the marker to correct any times it is not underlined • Make sure your peer did NOT underline Antigone’s name when she is mentioned as a character

10. Talk About the Editing • Return the paragraph to its author • Read through the notes or corrections that your peer made – do you have any questions? If so, ask them. • Do you have any questions for me? • Once all questions have been answered, it’s time to revise again.

Revising (cont’d) • Fill in the information at the top of the paper • Name, Date, Period • # = FOUR • FCAs – copy them from your Type Three, including points (make font smaller if necessary) • Choose a title for your paragraph and write it next to “Title” • DELETE the lines, including the X’s. (Since you will be typing this and DOUBLE SPACING it, you won’t need the lines and X’s.) • At the top of Word, change the spacing to 2.0 spacing – do so now so you don’t forget later
