This document discusses interpreting the meanings of words through denotation and connotation.
Denotation refers to the literal or exact meaning of a word, while connotation refers to the implied or hidden meaning that gives a word more emotional impact. Connotations can be positive, negative, or neutral.
Tone refers to the author's attitude conveyed in their writing, while mood refers to the general atmosphere created. Both tone and mood are established through an author's word choices.
The document provides examples to distinguish between objective and subjective writing. Objective writing presents many points of view without bias, while subjective writing has been influenced by the perspective of the speaker or writer.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

10. Tone
• Tone is the author’s
attitude toward the
writing (his characters,
the situation) and the
readers.
11. Mood
• Mood is the
general
atmosphere
created by the
author’s words.
12. Tone example
And the trees all died. They were orange trees. I don’t know
why they died, they just died. Something wrong with the soil
possibly or maybe the stuff we got from the nursery wasn’t
the best. We complained about it. So we’ve got thirty kids
there, each kid had his or her own little tree to plant and
we’ve got these thirty dead trees. All these kids looking at
these little brown sticks, it was depressing.
Consider the tone of The School by Donald Barthelme.
Here, words like "death" and "depressing" set a negative
or unhappy tone.
13. Mood example
Mood : dreary, depressed.
Like words : alone, hungry,
shivering, mother’s prisoner.
Winter 1970, Daly City, California
– I’m alone. I’m hungry and I’m
shivering in the dark. I sit on top
of my hands at the bottom of the
stairs in the garage. My head is
tilted backward. My hands
became numb hours ago. My neck
and my shoulder muscles begin to
throb. But that’s nothing new- I’ve
learned to turn off the pain. I’m
mother’s prisoner.
14. Last year, I went on an adventurous camping trip with my family to
the mountains. Not long after I arrived, I decided to go on a hike
alone, to see my surroundings and to get closer with the untamed
nature around me. The blistering heat pounded upon my face as I
trudged my way up the steep trail, but I managed to keep cool
under the shade of the evergreen forest. The sound of birds
chirping, the smell of pine filled my senses with delight. I was far
away from the hustle and bustle of the city, where one hears the
rumblings of automobile engines and smells the aroma of coffee
vendors on every corner. This was much different. As I walked, I felt
at peace with the world. Time seemed to slow down like a turtle’s
dawdling crawl. The ocean blue sky above me looked like I could
touch it and feel its’ warm, soothing energy.

18. Example :
The private party room was about the size of a
small airplane cabin. Roger and Mabel were
dancing together. Rita was eating a piece of
chocolate that she had cut into three bites.
"This is amazing!" she said, licking the pudding
from her fingers. A Labrador retriever was
sleeping in the corner.

19. Example :
The private party room was cramped. Although
Roger and Mabel managed to dance with one
another, they looked as if their steps were
uncomfortable and stilted. Poor Rita had to satisfy
herself by eating. Though she said, "This is
amazing," as she munched on a chocolate, it was
obvious she was being sarcastic. The party was so
boring that the dog in the corner couldn't even
stay awake!
