His chief pleasure is the proper use of words. His chief sorrow is that so few of the people around him share this pleasure. He is writing a letter. He has been revising it for three weeks. The question he has not yet answered is whether he wants the person he is writing to to like him for the letter, or for the man who wrote it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEach packet includes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal classical short story (complete text)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNotes on historical setting and literary tradition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNarration prompts (oral and written)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComprehension questions — literal and inferential\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVocabulary exercises\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharacter Constellation graphic organizer (including Character Change Axis)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStory Arc study (five movements, with attention to subtler turning points)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTheme \u0026amp; Meaning questions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocratic discussion questions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiterary Analysis (tone, diction, imagery, symbolism, contrast, motif, irony, structure, turning points, foreshadowing, allusion, narrative lens, narrative distance, narrative restraint)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopywork and memory work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional writing prompts (reflective, explanatory, creative, analytical)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete parent answer key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandards alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWritten for Grade 12.
