[|Death of a Moth] Extra Credit Baby!


 * Assignment:** Read this essay by Virginia Woolf and write a reaction to this piece. I'd like for you to try to tackle one of these three analysis areas:

For example: "Also, when there was nobody to care of to know, this gigantic effort on the part of an insignificant little moth, against a power of such magnitude, to retain what no one else valued or desired to keep, moved one strangely."
 * Analysis:** Take one line from the essay and take the line apart. Examine how the line can relate to a larger idea.


 * Synthesis:** Put the different elements of the story together (the events outside the window compared to the death of a moth) and explain the meaning.


 * Evaluation:** Discuss the impact of the story on you personally. How do you interpret the death of the moth?

I didn't want to put this on the other page that we're putting videos and lyrics on because it had more to do with what we talked about in class today. media type="youtube" key="NAryr1htkDM" height="344" width="425"
