Agenda:

- Romantic subgenre notes
- Motif identification steps with "The Nostalgist"
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzCQtoQ8ypk&feature=youtu.be
- First, list all the motifs (repeated elements you see or hear).
- Circle a motif that you think is most important to the text either because it is emphasized or repeated throughout the piece.
- Identify what you think that motif symbolizes. Chances are that if it's an important motif it is also a symbol.
- Write what theme/central idea (as a thematic statement) you believe the motif you chose supports.
- ...you've now identified everything you would need to write a Part 3 using motif.
Homework:
- Blue packet rewrites (if you already submitted) are due this Friday
- Extra credit and back work plans are due by 3/6
