Monday, Sept. 25 Agenda

}Bell Ringer: PoV, Setting, Mood review; Mood words handout
}Cask of Amontillado” pg 344
While reading, take notes in reader’s notebook of details that identify and describe setting and mood (sensory details, repetition, descriptions)
**Question based on active reading: “What is the mood and what 2-3 details of setting most help establish that mood?”
**Question 8: Consider whether Montresor is a reliable or unreliable narrator. Is the reader to believe, as Montresor does, that his revenge is justified? Is Montresor more sane or crazy? Give details from the story to support your opinion.
Read “Behind the Cask” pg 352
Question 10: Poe often drew inspiration for his tales of horror from the real world.  Compare the details of “The Story Behind ‘The Cask of Amontillado’” with the story of Montresor and Fortunato. How similar are these accounts? Be specific and detailed in your explanation.

}SSR letter due Friday
