Comenting on peers- novels projects

Camila Toro- PErcy Jackson and the Lighting Thief
I think that camilas project although it had way more information that otherd because it is a PreAp, i think that she gave really good details and information from each one of the literary devices. For each one pf them she used examples and where all answered in a really complete way using everything that was asked for. Also she like before answering the question she did a little like remebering of what it was and so. Really good

Majo Archila- Pretty Little Liars
Majo did a really good job i think at firdt before the literary devices she gave a synonim of each one of the devices. As a respond of the questions i think she did a good job because she answered each question, but i think that she could have done more details of each one. Anyways it was a ally good job. As Camila also it was a PreAp so it had more info than mine.

Sam Thomas- Shine
Sam did a great job doing tjis project for my opinion he before answering did a very good review of each device also his ideas where something confusing but good. Really good. As it was in PreAp it had more info than mine. Really good Sam

Literary devices in The Boy in The Striped Pajamas

In the boy in the striped pajams it was mnot that easy to find literary devices because as its based on a true stroy

Symbolisim: i think that in the boy in thestriped pajamas the most symbolic and the object that most had a meaning was the " striped outfit" Bruno saw from the window when he arrived to Out-With. After when he discovered what was the really meaning of that " striped outfit"

Foreshadowing:
The most obvios for me clues that somwthing was going to happen was to Bruno, when bad things started to happen to him like him getting stuck in the swing and fighting with his parents and his sister greatel, like things like that and eventually something really bad happend to him.

Flashback:
What Bruno most remeberd and thought many times inthe story was of his old house, for example when he moved to Out-With his street was really like loonley and quite, so he rememberd of his old house in Berling in which he used to play with his friends and so.

Plot-twist:
I tuing that what changed everything for Bruno and his family, changing to With-Out. In Berlin Bruno had his friends, his grandparents, his wonderfull house, everything was perfect, until he moved to Out-With and tjings started turning other paths.

Atmosphere:
The atmosphere throught some oart of the book was like okay like not bad or good, but them it became a dark atmosphere a sad one a crying one, because of everything that happens, bad thing after bad things, so its really sad.

How figurative language is used to creat emotions

Figurative language i think that is done to help people and to make writting more interesting.

Figurative language helps people creat tone because if you use for examole onomonooeia your tone is going to be loud and like important.

For mi opinn one of the most important figurative languages is imagery, so that the author helps you catan imahine in you head i mean is not the same if you said "the house was scary" than if you said " it was a dark path that leaded to a no way out house, not a normal house but a one that had no lights on, spider webs you could see and wolfs calling you could hear" that makes writing more suspence and cool to read. So figurative langugue helps the tone, mood and voice.
