English Day by Day is designed for school students to improve their performance in the English language.
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:
