Correction for the essay + translation + Norman Rockell's Rosie

Hey guys,

 

today we first finished correcting your tests (essay and translation). Here is the list of link words that were used in the essay:

 

"to be written by Sarah / Aurianne"

 

Here is the correction for the translation (English original text + our proposal):

 

"to be written by Sarah / Aurianne"

 

Then you took a vocabulary test and you then had to analyse and compare two drawings by Normal Rockwell that you can see again below:

Here is the chart we began to draw about the similarities and the differences between the two documents:

 

Similarities :

- Same artist
- American flag
- Women = the same girl (Rosie)
- masculine + feminine elements (trousers, clothes....)
- Short red-haired girls
- Not housewives
- look strong/ determined


Differences :

- They don't really look alike
- She has less muscles
- Not the same activities
- Their attitude (static / movement)
- symbol for Hitler (Mein Kampf)


-> Symbol :

They both embody the woman and her evolution during and after the war .

 

HW:

- Préparer des notes pour le commentaire (Identification, Description, Analyse, Contexte, Opinion, Elargissement) de l'une des deux images, au choix. Il serait quoiqu'il arrive judicieux de faire référence à l'autre oeuvre dans votre Analyse / Contexte / Elargissement... Quelques élèves seront notés sur leur intervention.

- Vous pouvez regarder ces reportages que nous visionnerons probablement Mercredi également en partie pour clore la séquence. Cela pourra vous donner des idées d'analyse:
