The Unicorn in the Garden - James Thurber

Hey guys,

today we first warmed up with two questions that you had to answer freely about fairy tales.

1- How did you get to know your first fairy tales?

2- Why do fairy tales attract children?

Here is what you said:

"to be written by ..."

Then, we continued the class with studying the text again. You had to focus on speech tags, verbs of movement and body language. Here is a selection of set expressions from the text:

"to be written by ..."

Finally, we commented on the story to determine if it was a parody indeed or not. Here is what we said about the twist in the story in the 2nd part: 

"to be written by ..."

HW:

- être capable de parler du texte et de l'histoire. Savoir expliquer pourquoi il s'agit d'une parodie = continuer le paragraphe déjà commencé pour la 1ère partie en le complétant par la 2ème partie.

- faire le surlignage concernant le discours, verbes de movement, actions liées au corps, ... dans la 2ème moitié du texte.
