followed his example, selecting the smoothest and roundest stones" (Jackson 1). Jackson describes the stones in detail to show their later significance. The collection of stones hints at the stoning of Tessie that occurs at the end of the story. ]]> 2020-09-29 12:01:05 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/787423647 DIRECTIONS: Your Name guerreiroa https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/787423650 Literary Device: Quote (Citation). Explanation/Analysis]]> 2020-09-29 12:01:05 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/787423650 Lila Kirwin https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788193107 Suspense: “A sudden hush fell on the crowd as Mr. Summers cleared his throat and looked at the list. ‘All ready?’ he called. ‘Now, I'll read the names--heads of families first--and the men come up and take a paper out of the box. Keep the paper folded in your hand without looking at it until everyone has had a turn. Everything clear?’” Mr. Summers is going to read names and have people pick from the box. This incorporates suspense because the reader still does not know what the lottery is about and people are going up to determine if they are going to win or lose. ]]> 2020-09-29 15:05:04 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788193107 Ben Lopes https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788193236 Imagery: "The Black Box grew shabbier each year: by now it was no longer completely black splintered badly along one side to show the original wood color, and in some places faded stained.” (Pg. 2)
This quote was an example of imagery because it really describes the black box and it's to the point where you can picture it in your head. The author did a good job and it makes the story seem more realistic.

way through the crowd” (Jackson 3). Mrs Hutchinson is saying her goodbyes to people. So, the author is hinting at the chance of her not being able to see people again. Which means something bad might happen.

The box being locked up makes it feel important and gives the impression that people may try to tamper with its contents before the lottery. The description of what Mr. Summers had to do to prepare for the Lottery also feels like since there is a lot of work to be done, it raises the importance of the Lottery.]]> 2020-09-29 15:05:10 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788193614 Claire Hook https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788194018 Imagery: "The box grew shabbier each year. by now it was no longer completely black but splintered badly along one side to show the original wood color and in some parts faded or stained"(Jackson 2).
There is a lot of meaning to the box, there is a lot of emotion with it too. The author describes it as Shabby, splintered, showing wood color, stained, faded. ]]> 2020-09-29 15:05:15 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788194018 Kaelyn Mahoney mahoneyk24 https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788196198 Suspense: 
“The black box grew shabbier each year: by now it was no longer completely black but
splintered badly along one side to show the original wood color, and in some places faded or stained.” (Jackson 2) The audience is unaware of what the box is used for and what it means. It is making the crowd nervous and uneasy.

Now at this point in the story, they are later know to be used as weapons.]]> 2020-09-29 15:05:42 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788196327 Calla Rebello https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788196459 Suspense: "‘Tessie’ Mr. Summers said. She hesitated for a minute, looking around defiantly, and then set her lips and went up to the box.”
(Jackson 6)
By going into detail about how hesitant and afraid Tessie is of the lottery box, it builds tension and leads up to her getting the marked paper.

as the villagers moved in on her."
(Jackson 7). The author describes how the stoning was set up. The author also gives us some imagery on how Tessie was nervous.

The tension has been built and now the reader is allowed to picture the crowd clearly, a nervous mood is set. The men are all concerned that their families will be the ones to pick from the black box for a second time. ]]> 2020-09-29 15:06:23 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788199791 Emma Noble https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788200160 Imagery:  “After that, there was a long pause, a breathless pause,”(Jackson 5) . this takes place right before they open up the slip of paper. It shows that they are scared or nervous about opening up the slip of paper. ]]> 2020-09-29 15:06:28 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788200160 Emma Sherrod https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788200371 Imagery: "there were stones on the ground with blowing scraps of paper that had come out of the box.” (Jackson 7) The author describes a nice image of where the stones were located. The author also put details on what the stones looked like.]]> 2020-09-29 15:06:30 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788200371 Suspense - Gracin Raposa https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788200805 "The crowd was quiet. A girl whispered, "I hope it's not Nancy," (Jackson 6) and the sound of the whisper reached the edges of the crowd." This shows suspense because suspense is defined as feeling of worry and there was silence and hesitation noted. They showed that the crowd was very suspenseful as they were hoping that each and every single one of their families was not chosen for the "lottery".]]> 2020-09-29 15:06:36 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788200805 Abby Courville https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788201433 Foreshadowing: “He blinked his eyes nervously and ducked his head as several voices in the crowd said things like, "Good fellow, lad," and "Glad to see your mother's got a man to do it." (Jackson 3)"
He is nervous for himself and everyone else is praising him for doing this like it's a difficult thing. Something bad could happen and everyone is glad that his mother isn't gonna be the one that it happens too.

“they grinned at each other humorlessly and nervously” pg. 4

Everyone was very tense and nervous about what was to come. This tells me that what is to come isn’t something any of them are looking forward to.

“‘There’s Don and Eva,’ Mrs. Hutchinson yelled. ‘Make them take their chance!’” pg. 7

This alludes to the fact that someone is going to be chosen for something that they don't want to be chosen for.

(Jackson 7). This quote is showing that is was basically guaranteed that Tessie was the winner of the lottery. She is showing a lot of apprehension and her husband, Bill had to forcibly take the piece of paper out of her hand.

“Bill Hutchinson was standing quietly, staring down
at the paper in his hand.” (Jackson 5). 
He’s nervous, scared. Almost seems to almost be blaming himself for picking the slip. He knows deep down that his family's lives are stake, and is conflicted between thinking he's to blame.

(pg. 4) This quote is an example of suspense because it shows the nerves being built up as if something bad is about to happen. If nothing to cause nerves were to occur, the wife wouldn't be holding her breath in fear for her husband. ]]> 2020-09-29 15:08:54 UTC https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788211949 Lily Medeiros medeirosl241 https://padlet.com/guerreiroa/nften4it083qak37/wish/788212041 Suspense
"“People began to look around to see the Hutchinsons. Bill Hutchinson was standing quietly, staring down at the paper in his hand.” (Jackson 5). The author describes how nervous Bill Hutchinson is, but isn't telling the reader why.
