Since it’s not first person we don’t know anything about the past lottery experiences people had and kept away what the lottery tradition basically was until it happened in our story. One example of foreshadowing is when the children were collecting rocks and another would be that once we read that the lottery happened because of crops that it was something of more old tradition and not with the times, which could also mean it has the chance of being something brutal like theirs.]]> 2020-10-07 17:33:54 UTC https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811222087 https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811236587 Exposition: Town is gathering in school yard, kids are playing and picking rocks
Rising action:When the mysterious black box is brought out and people crowd around it in a circle

Climax: The Hutcherson family gets the marked paper and eventually Tessie is the one unlucky enough to get the final dotted paper
Falling action: Tessie starts a fit about the lottery, saying that it is unfair and the town turns on her
Resolution: Tessie is stoned to death]]> 2020-10-07 17:37:15 UTC https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811236587 https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811249599 2. You have to always move on from the past, which is seen through the way the old tradition of the lottery led to the death of at least 1 of the town’s citizens each year. Another theme seen in the story is how Old Age doesn’t always mean wisdom. This can be seen in the story as old man Warner is the main person that is campaigning to keep the Lottery open, with him criticizing other towns for ending it.]]> 2020-10-07 17:40:21 UTC https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811249599 https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811253723 6- it shows dramatic irony because they think that they have a very civilized place because they have a lottery while other places that stopped the lottery became more chaotic. This shows dramatic irony because we know what a civilized place looks like because we live perfect lives without killing people with rocks. It would not be the same with richer people because they have different morals and ethics and they wouldn’t need to have the lottery due to them having a lot of money which means they wouldn’t have to kill off people for crops because they could buy them. Another form of dramatic irony is when the children pick up rocks because we know that in the lottery they kill people with rocks. ]]> 2020-10-07 17:41:17 UTC https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811253723 https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811254963 5- The significance of Tessie‘s final screen shows panic and fear. The aspect of the lottery she challenges is like and having everyone turn against her. Lottery by saying how it was a fair for her, but the lottery of raw shouldn’t be stopped and it should happen to someone else. She is not sympathetic because she only cares about herself living and not others dying.]]> 2020-10-07 17:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811254963 https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811292255 3. Character vs Nature: Tessie vs Rocks, this is seen by how the rocks were used to stone Tessie to death. Character vs Character: Tessie vs Mr. Summers, the passage has this type of conflict as Tessie begged Mr. Summers to redraw as her husband’s name was called, and Mr. Summers ignored her, creating that type of conflict. Character vs Society: Tessie vs the Town, this type of conflict the most important in the story as it is the one the whole story revolves around. Tessie’s name was drawn from the lottery and so this sparked the town to kill her, as was the tradition of the Lottery in the story, creating this type of conflict. It is also seen by the way the town ignored her when she begged for a redraw, and how it was not fair.]]> 2020-10-07 17:50:29 UTC https://padlet.com/asparks20/6oin6bs5xssp25yc/wish/811292255
