PPT created by Kathleen Curran on Traditional Symbols in Literature. The slide show will be accompanied by a lecture. Students will have a handout with the symbol listed. They will take notes on what the symbol represents as they view the slide show and listen to my lecture. The next step will be having students find these symbols in literature we read in class.
