• Out of Class Annotations for Dickens:
•  You will notice that Dickens is rhetorically gifted, like a poet trapped in a novelist's career.  Annotate rhetorical devices as you meet them (extended metaphor, types of imagery, polysyndeton, etc.).  Be sure to make at least one annotation per chapter.  This will be very helpful training for the AP exam.
