The Monkey's Paw Continued

November 27:  Idioms and Foreshadowing

Foreshadowing is the use of hints or clues to suggest what will happen later in literature.

• Try to identify some more examples of foreshadowing from the parts we have already read.  Add the examples in your notebook. 

An idiom is a phrase where the words together have a meaning that is different from the dictionary definitions of the individual words.

• Are there any idioms in this part of the story?  If so, what are they?  What do they mean?

• Continue watching the video-- stop it when you reach the end of part III.  
• Add 2 events to your plot-line (for the rising action).
