Who/What Is Beloved? November 13, 2018

Focus: How do we interpret the baby ghost in Beloved?

1. Warming up by generating questions about characters, plot, setting, and structure

2. Discussing your questions in a clockwork discussion

3. Offering you an overview of  Socratic tickets; if you're not quite sure where to start, try focusing your first ticket on the character who intrigues you the most

• For Beloved, I will collect your reading tickets every other time (one half of the class on Friday, one half on Monday).

4. Wrapping up by reading Chapter 2

HW:
1. For TOMORROW: Read through at least Chapter 3, and bring your Beloved book to class tomorrow for some reading time. 

2. For THURSDAY: Read through Chapter 6; we will prepare a sample reading ticket in class.

3. For FRIDAY: Read through Chapter 8 and add to or create a new Beloved reading ticket (see reading ticket possibilities above and on handout given in class).
