F-BAND: HANDMAID'S TALE (191-211)

1. Choose a line, and then analyze the passage in a reader response in which you explain why this portion stood out to you. Try to make sense of it. Did it raise questions? Did it confuse you? What part of the language stood out to you? Why did Atwood choose to describe the passage in the way that she did-- how do her literary choices lead to meaning? 

2. Respond to someone else. Try to answer their questions. Connect their response to another passage or to the world. Deep thinking is the goal here-- take your classmate's thinking and add more thinking.
