Power of Time
This activity will emphasize how time and past experiences affect our self-concept. In this activity, you will examine a historical example of a personal essay. You will use your chunking reading strategy to analyze the essay. Finally, you will build a multimedia timeline that will illustrate five to ten defining moments in your life generating pictures or audio files as proof. You will justify the elements of your timeline using an oral presentation.
Handout—Complete the vocabulary and chunking then do the quiz below.
Irony: in its broadest sense, is a rhetorical device, literary technique, or event in which what appears, on the surface, to be the case, differs radically from what is actually the case.
Irony is a figure of speech in which words are used in such a way that their intended meaning is different from the actual meaning of the words. It may also be a situation that ends up in quite a different way than what is generally anticipated. In simple words, it is a difference between appearance and reality.
