Close Reading Planning "The Tell-Tale Heart" 3/4 by Franziska Federico https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart Independent en-us 2017-10-07 15:56:26 UTC 2017-10-10 15:19:04 UTC hello@padlet.com Wenyulie Peralta; Conflict wenyulie28570 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195626727 We think that paragraph(s) 15-17 is best for showing conflict because it shows how the narrator hears the old man's heartbeat even though he killed him and thinks that the police men can hear it as well. Tell Tale Heart, "No! They heard! I was certain of it. They knew! [...] I was suffering more than I could bear, from their smiles, and from that sound. Louder, louder, louder! [...]I pointed at the boards and cried, 'Yes! Yes, I killed him. Pull up the boards and you shall see! I killed him. But why does his heart not stop beating?! Why does it not stop!?'" (par.17) The narrator starts panicking and out of pure fear he confessed his crime to the policemen and showed them the old man's dismembered body.]]> 2017-10-10 14:43:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195626727 Delaney delaney24769 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627048 I think paragraph 3 shows the best in conflict in the story "The Tell Tale Heart" "I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! He had the eye of a vulture --a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold;" This evidence shows that the man does not hate the man but because of his blue eyes with the gray veil over it and whenever the narrator sees the eye he gets filled anger and which triggers him to wanting to kill the old man

As said in this quote " I think it was his eye. His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it And so, I finally decided I had to kill the old man and close that eye forever!"]]> 2017-10-10 14:44:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627459 Arnold- arnold23599 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627546 1. I think paragraph 2 is best for showing conflict because in paragraph 2 it says " I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! He had the eye of a vulture --a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold; and so by degrees --very gradually --I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever."This shows how the narrator didn't like the old mans eye's so he wanted to kill him and get rid of his eyes.
2. I think paragraph 2 is best for showing characterization because it says " I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! He had the eye of a vulture --a pale blue eye " he talks about the old man and his eyes]]> 2017-10-10 14:44:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627546 John Linarez Character and Symbols john23541 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627669 1.Character-I think Paragraph 3 best shows the Narrators character as he reacts extremely disturbed by his eyes but isn't scared or fearful by his attitude as quote," I did not hate the old man; I even loved him. He had never hurt me. I did not want his money. I think it was his eye. His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it."
2.Symbols-I think paragraph 11 shows symbols for the story as the heartbeat represents guilt,despair,or confession by the narrators reaction.This is further supported by the following text," Have I not told you that my hearing had become unusually strong? Now I could hear a quick, low, soft sound, like the sound of a clock heard through a wall. It was the beating of the old man’s heart. I tried to stand quietly. But the sound grew louder. The old man’s fear must have been great indeed. And as the sound grew louder my anger became greater and more painful. But it was more than anger. In the quiet night, in the dark silence of the bedroom my anger became fear — for the heart was beating so loudly that I was sure some one must hear."]]> 2017-10-10 14:44:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627669 Andrea andrea28392 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627741 Conflict:
When the police come to investigate, the narrator claimed to continue to hear the beating heart of the old man. " My head hurt and there was a strange sound in my ears.[...]The sound became clearer. "
Symbols:
The narrator related the sound he heard to a clock. The heartbeats he began to hear in his head symbolized guilt. He felt guilty for killing the old man. "And the sound, too, became louder. It was a quick, low, soft sound, like the sound of a clock heard through a wall[...]"
Aspects of Character:
The narrator's original plan was to kill the man's eye. He knew that because of the scream people were going to investigate and try and find something. He decided to cut up the body, hide it under the floorboard and clean up to make sure no blood was seen. The narrator is seen as clever to hid any evidence. "[...]how careful I was to put the body where no one could find it." ]]> 2017-10-10 14:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627741 sabian sabian26424 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627755 i think it shows conflict and symbols because the narrator hates the eye of the old man so he want to kill the old man which leads to him sneaking into the house and plotting to kill him. "did not want his money. I think it was his eye. His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it". The symbolism in this is that the eye represents the the bad so the narrator wants to rid himself of the evil. ]]> 2017-10-10 14:45:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627755 Monica monica25330 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627768 Conflict:I think paragraphs
5 -7 show conflict because when the narrator was in the old mans house he was going into his room.As he was going into the old mans room his thumb slipped on the lantern and made a noise.Which caused the old man to wake up,because the old man was so frightened he didn't go back to sleep.
Aspects of the Character:I think paragraph 14 shows aspects of the narrator because his plan was to kill the old mans eye but when the old man died he decided to cut his body up into pieces.So this showed that he became a more ruthless and cruel person. ]]> 2017-10-10 14:45:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627768 Mahmoud Hassaneen https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627827 1.I Believe that the conflict of The Tall-Tale Heart is that the narrator wants to kill the old man. As shown in paragraph 3 it states, " His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it."
2. I Believe that the narrator the shows symbols several times. As shown on paragraph 11 is states the heartbeat represents guilt,despair,or confession by the narrators reaction.This is further supported by the following text.]]> 2017-10-10 14:45:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627827 Karen: Conflict and Aspects karen24652 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195627832 1. I think paragraph 3 is best for showing conflict because it states how the narrator likes the old man but he hates the old mans eyes. He says it is like vulture eyes. " It is impossible to say how the idea first entered my head. There was no reason for what I did. I did not hate the old man; I even loved him. He had never hurt me. I did not want his money. I think it was his eye. His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it. When the old man looked at me with his vulture eye a cold feeling went up and down my back;even my blood became cold. And so, I finally decided I had to kill the old man and close that eye forever!
2. I think paragraph 3 is best for showing aspects of the narrator or the old man’s character because you can see that the narrator loved the old man but he felt guilty that he killed him. " My easy, quiet manner made the policemen believe my story. So they sat talking with me in a friendly way. But although I answered them in the same way, I soon wished that they would go. My head hurt and there was a strange sound in my ears. I talked more, and faster. The sound became clearer. And still they sat and talked. Suddenly I knew that the sound was not in my ears, it was not just inside my head. At that moment I must have become quite white. I talked still faster and louder. And the sound, too, became louder. It was a quick, low, soft sound, like the sound of a clock heard through a wall, a sound I knew well. Louder it became, and louder. Why did the men not go? Louder, louder. I stood up and walked quickly around the room. I pushed my chair across the floor to make more noise, to cover that terrible sound. I talked even louder. And still the men sat and talked, and smiled. Was it possible that they could not hear??"

The narrator quoted saying "When the old man looked at me with his vulture eye a cold feeling went up and down my back.Even my blood became cold. And also, I finally decided that I had to kill the old man and close that eye forever!". He also stated in the same paragraph "I did not hat the old man.I even loved him.He had never hurt me.

I think paragraph 3 is best for showing conflict because the narrator expresses how he wants to kill the old man . Paragraph 3 sentence 6 he says " And so, I finally decided I had to kill the old man and close that eye forever! ", which expresses how wants to kill the old man.
2.
I think paragraph 3 is best for showing aspects of the narrator or the old man’s character because the narrator explains how he is distorted because it states that when the old man looked at me with his vulture eye a cold feeling went up and down my back; even my blood became cold. And so, I finally decided I had to kill the old man and close that eye forever! . ]]> 2017-10-10 14:45:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195628151 Jacqueline jacqueline23801 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195628221 1. I think paragraph 3 is best for showing conflict because it first talks about how he's thinking of killing the man. In paragraph 3 it states " It is impossible to say how the idea first entered my head. There was no reason for what I did. " That says it all on how he just wanted to kill the man and how he didn't know why he did it but it happened.

2. I think paragraph 3 is best for showing Showing aspects of the narrator or the old man’s character because it talks about how evil the old man looks and makes the narrator feel. It states " His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it." That shows how he looks evil or like a bad person and makes it a bad person to be around.]]> 2017-10-10 14:45:51 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195628221 jahir jahir23980 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195628338 the conflict could be when the narrator kills the old man and leads to the police investigating the murder]]> 2017-10-10 14:46:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195628338 David https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195628371 Conflict:

Character~The Old Man,Narrator
I think paragraph 3 and so on is best for showing conflict because it explains how the narrator wanted to kill the old man.]]> 2017-10-10 14:46:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195628607 Ashley ashley24639 https://padlet.com/ffederico/telltaleheart/wish/195628688 Conflict~

In paragraph 3 it states," His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it."

Tell Tale Heart states, " Every night about twelve o’clock I slowly opened his door. And when the door was opened wide enough I put my hand in, and then my head. In my hand I held a light covered over with a cloth so that no light showed. And I stood there quietly. Then, carefully, I lifted the cloth, just a little, so that a single, thin, small light fell across that eye. For seven nights I did this, seven long nights, every night at midnight. Always the eye was closed, so it was impossible for me to do the work. For it was not the old man I felt I had to kill; it was the eye, his Evil Eye." (par.5) and "Have I not told you that my hearing had become unusually strong? Now I could hear a quick, low, soft sound, like the sound of a clock heard through a wall. It was the beating of the old man’s heart. I tried to stand quietly. But the sound grew louder. [...] The old man was dead. I took away the bedcovers and held my ear over his heart. There was no sound. Yes. He was dead! Dead as a stone. His eye would trouble me no more!"
