Hello. Archers to our archers who missed class yesterday for
- 00:06 - 00:06
Tuck Everlasting.
- 00:07 - 00:11
I did record the video live, but unfortunately, I don't
- 00:11 - 00:12
know what's going on.
- 00:12 - 00:14
It is not working.
- 00:14 - 00:18
So I have made a prerecorded video for you to
- 00:19 - 00:21
recap Um, what we talked about as a class yesterday.
- 00:23 - 00:27
So yesterday we read chapter 21 in class and we
- 00:27 - 00:31
talked about Winnie and her return home.
- 00:31 - 00:35
So the sheriff, I mean, the constable actually brought her
- 00:35 - 00:36
home safe and sound.
- 00:36 - 00:39
Her parents and her grandmother was they were very happy
- 00:39 - 00:43
to see her, but the constable had advised them that
- 00:44 - 00:47
when he left on her own, she did not get
- 00:47 - 00:49
kidnapped. So even though they were like, what?
- 00:50 - 00:53
Um, they still welcomed her and bathed her and Fetter
- 00:54 - 00:57
and basically treated her like a doll or a pet
- 00:58 - 00:59
a ZX they had before.
- 01:00 - 01:03
But what they didn't realize is that when he actually
- 01:04 - 01:06
made a change, those couple of days that she was
- 01:07 - 01:09
actually with the tux, um, she grew up.
- 01:10 - 01:11
She is a little bit more mature, and she's a
- 01:12 - 01:15
little bit more exposed to the world because she led
- 01:15 - 01:19
a sheltered life, um, at home, But being with the
- 01:19 - 01:20
tux for those couple of days.
- 01:21 - 01:25
Um, really, um, kind of grew her up rather fast.
- 01:26 - 01:29
So the constable had shared with the dad and mom
- 01:30 - 01:31
and grandma where they were listening.
- 01:32 - 01:36
That that May tuck had actually hit the man with
- 01:36 - 01:39
the yellow suit with shotgun and that if he were
- 01:40 - 01:41
to die, that she was going to go to the
- 01:42 - 01:45
gallows. When he heard that information, she was in her
- 01:45 - 01:48
room. And she was, you know, worried because Tuck had
- 01:48 - 01:50
said that before they left from their home.
- 01:51 - 01:53
So she was already aware of that.
- 01:53 - 01:58
So after the constable left, um, when he was talking
- 01:58 - 02:00
to her parents and her grandmother and trying to explain
- 02:01 - 02:03
to them the tux were nice people.
- 02:03 - 02:06
I chose to leave with them and they fed me.
- 02:06 - 02:06
Well, I have flapjacks.
- 02:07 - 02:08
We went fishing.
- 02:08 - 02:10
All of this, um, cool stuff that she did.
- 02:10 - 02:12
But the parents kind of were dismissive.
- 02:13 - 02:15
They were like, No, basically, you got kidnapped.
- 02:15 - 02:16
And she's like, No.
- 02:16 - 02:20
So then Dad mentioned about the man in the yellow
- 02:20 - 02:24
suit that he possibly could die and e mean Well,
- 02:24 - 02:24
he didn't.
- 02:24 - 02:26
He kind of alluded to it.
- 02:26 - 02:29
he didn't come out outright and said he could die.
- 02:29 - 02:33
And so he was discussing, you know, Well, maybe, you
- 02:33 - 02:36
know, we'll get our land back if And so when
- 02:36 - 02:37
he blurred out if he dies.
- 02:39 - 02:41
And so the parents and the grandmother was shocked because
- 02:42 - 02:44
they never really talked to her about death, and they
- 02:45 - 02:46
so she didn't really understand.
- 02:47 - 02:50
I mean, she had lost her grandfather, but she was
- 02:50 - 02:51
just sheltered.
- 02:51 - 02:54
And so it was just really a come in of
- 02:56 - 03:00
of age for Winnie that her parents and her grandmother
- 03:00 - 03:01
had to really reflect.
- 03:01 - 03:04
And they looked at her different, like some She's back,
- 03:04 - 03:06
but she's different, and she was different cause she was
- 03:06 - 03:07
a little bit more mature.
- 03:08 - 03:12
Eso that is pretty much what we talked about yesterday.
- 03:13 - 03:16
I would encourage you to definitely read Chapter 21.
- 03:17 - 03:19
There was no homework because we did discussion in class.
- 03:20 - 03:22
And today we'll be reading Chapter 22.
- 03:24 - 03:27
Um, the literary device that we covered in the book
- 03:28 - 03:33
waas metaphor because, um, Winnie actually compared.
- 03:34 - 03:38
She had incident before, where she killed a wasp with
- 03:38 - 03:41
a book and when after she killed the wasp and
- 03:41 - 03:44
she saw the wasp pretty much lifeless because she slammed
- 03:44 - 03:46
it with a book that she felt guilty.
- 03:47 - 03:50
She felt bad and also refer back to when, um
- 03:52 - 03:55
Miles took her fishing on the boat and how they
- 03:55 - 03:57
caught the fish and the fish was kind of flipping
- 03:57 - 04:00
around. And she felt guilty, and she asked him to
- 04:00 - 04:03
throw it back in the lake or the pond because
- 04:04 - 04:04
she didn't feel comfortable.
- 04:05 - 04:07
So she is uncomfortable about death.
- 04:07 - 04:11
But she understands it now that she's experienced, um, that
- 04:12 - 04:14
being away from home and being with the tuck.
- 04:14 - 04:18
So she understands that May cannot go to the gallows
- 04:19 - 04:22
if the man in the yellows who dies because obviously
- 04:22 - 04:23
everybody will find out the secret.
- 04:24 - 04:27
Because if they hang May, she's not going to die.
- 04:28 - 04:31
So when he is really concerned about that So we
- 04:31 - 04:34
talked about the metaphor, how she compared her killing the
- 04:34 - 04:35
wasp to Winnie.
- 04:36 - 04:39
I mean, to may hitting the man of the L
- 04:39 - 04:40
suit with the butt of the gun and he could
- 04:40 - 04:41
possibly die.
- 04:41 - 04:45
Eso that is pretty much the recap from yesterday.
- 04:46 - 04:50
And we will hopefully catch you live in class today.
- 04:51 - 04:51
Thank you.
