English 10

Your five academic words and definitions are due on Tuesday.
 Also, on Friday we discussed symbolism.  A symbol is an object that means more than meets the eye.  For example, on one hand, a wedding ring is simply an object made from metal and a stone.  On the other hand, it also represents love and union.  Symbols are things that link solid objects to abstract ideas...doves=peace, hearts=love, a lighbulb=an idea.
This weekend, give some thought as to what the man, the ewe, the dingo, and the flood could symbolize in the story "The Inheritor".
