- The students had a choice as to whether have the question analysis count as a quiz grade or take a quiz, most chose the analysis. I will ask Tuesday, once more, if this is still their option.

Tone is created by what is said and how it is said. This is a combination of the diction (the words used), the details that the author focuses on, the images, the way the characters are described and what they say. Here is a list of what to look for to identify the tone and offer evidence to support it:
- Look for words that tend to have emotions attached to them.
- Look for how the narrator describes things and people.
- Identify the theme first; then, ask yourself what the narrator thinks about that theme. Remember theme is: Theme is defined as the central idea or an underlying meaning of a particular literary work written in sentence or phrase form. A topic is one or two words that could be generalized among several literary works
Peak quiz not yet determined.
