Allusion+Triage


 * AP ENGLISH ****Allusion Triage **


 * ALLUSION: **(noun) an implied or indirect reference to another literary work or event in history or literature. [Webster’s Collegiate] 


 * Many w** **riters** and poets draw allusions and metaphors from the Bible and the ancient classical writings (mainly Greek and Roman). Knowledge of the characters and stories contained in the Bible and in the body of myths and legends will add appreciably to the enjoyment of good literature of all kinds. From the very beginning of the literary canon, writers have borrowed characters, plots, and themes from these sources.


 * Name of story **
 * Source (Biblical, Greek, Roman, etc.) **
 * Six word memoir (See [|NPR memoir project] and [|Smith College] for idea) **
 * A picture, video clip, painting, sculpture, etc. **
 * Ability to verbalize story **


 * Grading Rubric: **


 * 10 points (A+) – **A wonderful memoir, picture, bibliographic reference and story! You really taught me something about this allusion and helped me remember this!


 * 9 points (A) – **A very good memoir, picture and story! You taught me something about this allusion and helped me remember this!


 * <span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">8 points (B) – **<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">A good memoir, picture, and story! You taught me something about this allusion and helped me remember this!


 * <span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">7 points (C)- **<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Memoir, picture, story, and bibliography evident. I may remember this, if I work hard.


 * <span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">5 points (F)- **<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">A mockery of Advanced Placement work. Shame on you. Of course, it’s better than nothing!
