Exploding quotes
Using this to help with analysis<br>
slide4. Everybody’s different! In English we can select evidence to prove what we say.
This is sometimes different evidence, but it doesn’t mean one person is wrong or right!
Sometimes there is lots of evidence in the text, you have to make sure you select good quotes to analyse.<br>
slide5. Have a look at this nursery rhyme: Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!
Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!<br>
slide6. Imagine you had to write a PEAS answer to this: How do you know that the star is pretty?
What quote would you choose?
Write your PEAS paragraph.<br>
slide7. How do you know that the star is pretty? Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!
Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!<br>
slide8. Let’s explode this nursery rhyme to find the best quote! We are not going to blow it up with a bomb!
We are going to make notes to dissect it (pull it apart).
These notes will help us with our analysis – let’s see if we can write better PEAS by exploding the nursery rhyme to find the best quote.<br>
slide9. Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!
Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are! This is repeated because it’s so shiny Adjective little suggests it is small and cute The person talking is not sure what they are looking at – they are amazed A simile – diamonds suggest that it is rare, precious and beautiful Exclamation marks used to show the person speaking is shocked by the beauty<br>
slide10. How do you know that the star is pretty? Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!
Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are!<br>
slide11. Quote exploded! Task
Re-write your PEAS paragraph
You can pick a new quote if you like.
Mini review
Is your analysis better?
Was it easier?<br>
slide12. Connotations The best way to make sure you are analysing the language is to learn this word!
It is really simple to use and can give your analysis a real burst!<br>
slide13. Connotations – Copy this! Connotations are the things you think about when you hear a word/see a picture/think of something.
For example – the connotations of the colour ‘pink’ are girls, flowers, Barbie Dolls... Anything else?<br>
slide14. Connotations<br>
slide15. How to use ‘Connotations’ in your analysis Pick out some key words in your quote – if it’s a metaphor/simile, what has the writer compared it to?
Start your analysis with ‘the connotations of the word ... are ...’
How easy is that?!<br>
slide16. Example PEAS I know the star is pretty because the writer describes it in a positive way. He/She says it’s ‘like a diamond’. A simile has been used. the connotations of a ‘diamond’ are that it is sparkly, luxurious and a jewel. This makes me think it’s definitely pretty. On the other hand, diamonds are very rare so the writer might mean he has never seen anything like this before.<br>
slide17. REVIEW Using the same nursery rhyme we exploded earlier, answer this question with PEAS.
How do you know the writer is shocked by the star?
Analysis is key – you must use ‘connotations’ and make sure your analysis is the longest bit of the PEAS.<br>
