We Did It!!


I'm feeling so accomplished today! Sandra, Meredith, and myself completed our podcasts today. Today's class definitely made up for last week. I think the three of us worked well together and did a great job. For our lesson we will give an introduction to Edgar Allen Poe, listen to our podcast, and introduce a project to the class. Our podcast questions are:



  • Whats the setting and atmosphere of the story?

  • Whats your first impression of the main character?

  • Whats your initial predictions about whats going to happen through out the story?

  • What evidence suggests the narrator is a mad man.

  • Describe the grotesque Gothic elements during this section.

  • How does the man describe how he will dismember the body?

  • Where did the ringing come from?
These questions will help the students get a good grasp of the story. Afterwards we will be having a "fright fest" in class. Stay tuned for more spooky news! Muah Ha Ha!!
